JennyGrace Shaw, M.ED., LMHC, NBCC
We all experience speed bumps during our life journey. Though it may seem we are “lost or unsure” Jenny Grace believes the powers we are looking for are inside YOU!
She believes one simply needs to be validated, and to strengthen the emotional “muscles” that have grown weak–just as we exercise our bodies and our minds, we must exercise our emotional muscles.
Jenny Grace believes we cannot experience long term health unless we pay close attention to our Mind, Body and Spirit as a whole; our humanness.
In many instances, she finds it is our voice that is silenced whether directly or indirectly. As the voice continues to be stifled, we turn to other ways to express ourselves.
However, these behaviors stifle our spirits further. JennyGrace’s goal is to connect with your internal dialogue through paying attention to what you are and what you are not saying.
Her goal is to guide you towards new awareness and insight into the internal dialogues and assuming personal truths that continue to block you from living your most empowered life. Without awareness, change cannot be achieved.

Her therapeutic Style is Eclectic in that she does not believe “one size fits all” and looks towards approaches that focus on the whole-self; Mind, Body, and Spirit.
JennyGrace believes it is important that you feel a part of your healing journey from the very beginning as well as that she is the “best fit” for your needs. “Your journey is far too precious for you to settle for anything less.”
