Introduction

Before you can improve your interpersonal relationships, you HAVE to improve your relationship with yourself. How you feel about self, is projected in every relationship in your life. Everything is energy and energy connects everything. Our practice combines mindfulness based cognitive therapy, meditation and other eclectic stress reduction techniques to bring clarity and meaning to your environment. We teach you how to be intentional with your thoughts, the power of the breath, creating your reality, and overcoming obstacles simply by resetting & re-centering your emotions. Shaakira is a Licensed Practitioner in the State of Pa with over twenty years' experience in Behavioral Health. Her modality is Holistic Therapy which supports the alignment of Mind (Mental Health), Body, (Physical Health), Emotional and Spiritual. Ailments is not an isolated problem, an imbalance in one aspect of self-causes distress in the other. This practice brings a harmonious alignment to all elements of a person. With a Dual Master's in Social work and Public health, Shaakira is trained to examine the entire person including family dynamics, the effects of trauma, socialization, ecology, and environment.

"Does my thinking help me feel the way I want to feel?" In addition, we approach life challenges by combining Rational Behavioral therapy with mindfulness, introspective activities, and Somatic Psychology.
