“Being in Shayna’s class was a life changing experience. Shayna opened my mind to so many things. She always listened and help me deconstruct any situation in a way that made everything more clear and easier to work with. Some of the most important things I’ve learned so far were to understand and be compassionate towards the parts of me I thought were harder to love, and to learn how to contradict my conditioning on a daily basis. Working with a group of people that go thru similar things made it so much better and easier to forgive and love myself too, as well as start putting myself and my needs first instead of feeling bad or apologizing for them. I’ve stopped being ashamed and angry at myself for being Anxiously Attached and now I’m proud of who I am, even that part of Me.”

“I had been going to therapy for years and I kept falling back into the same cycles and feeling stuck over and over again.
I remember how supportive and loving Shayna was right from the beginning, and it was so nice to have someone understand me and truly listen because I felt like I had been drowning in myself. The group ended up being an even bigger support system than I could have ever imagined. I was nervous to open up at first but with each meeting and each lesson it helped me keep opening up to parts of myself that I had been neglecting for years. I discovered parts of my inner child that I didn’t know existed. I didn’t even really know what my inner child was. But through those meditations, and meetings, and all of those discussions I really started to see and accept myself in ways that have been super uncomfortable, but immensely healing. And having that group was such a beautiful thing to participate in. It was the first time I had done something like that. It’s a very vulnerable thing and to experience it with people live online where you can laugh and cry and share the journey together is an something I won’t forget. The work is hard. But it’s worth every step of it and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I’ve met such beautiful people and heard all of these inspiring stories that make me feel like I’m not alone in this. I feel stronger. More resilient to the things I’ve been fighting. I feel supported and heard and like I have a new set of tools that are going to help me continue to forge this path of loving myself and healing my inner child.“

“I had always wanted to learn how to reach my inner child and through Shayna’s guidance and the group’s support, I was able to identify the trauma from my past and begin working on healing. I have learned that it is a process and I need to work at it everyday, but most importantly, Shayna has helped me realize that I am worth the work and to not give up.
Through meditation, journaling and group support, Shayna has shared her gift of compassion with me. I look forward to the journey of self-discovery and I am so glad I have Shayna there to help guide me along!

“I didn’t really know how to love my “inner child” or reintegrate parts of myself I’d come to associate with shame and pain. I knew it was time for another approach. [In Shayna’s program] I learned what tools I have available to continue to heal at my own pace, to embrace my inner truth, to accept others as they are, and to see the world as it is rather than simply how I would like to view it. The group setting allowed me to be vulnerable and inspired by those making the same journey into secure attachment. Support through healthy co-regulation gave me the confidence to see within myself the same spark of transformation I could see growing brighter in the other members of the group. My journey is not yet complete, and yet I feel more confident, more prepared, and more assured that I’m on the right path and truly am growing into the best version of myself. I am exactly Who, Where, and What I need to be, In The Now. Shayna’s program was undoubtedly a major turning point in my journey, and I’m immensely grateful for finding the help I needed, exactly when I needed it most.“

“My work with Shayna was very reflective. She asked some difficult questions to try and get me out of my comfort zone (that is where the magic happens). She had me role play and start to get to the root of the inner child in me that has always felt abandoned. She openly shared some of her own journeys which made me feel less alone and more safe. She would always leave sessions with something to ponder or work on for next time. She helped me access a part of me that was deeply hidden. I’m grateful for the experience. This group did some solid shadow work and challenged me to uncover my inner child. The journaling and workbooks were thought provoking and the group time was insightful. It felt good to connect with others struggling in different ways from me, but it also made me realize that the wiring all goes back to childhood. It was the start of my journey back to self.”
