Getting to know Sheila Graves
Hello, I'm Sheila. My hope is to be a soft place to fall when discussing life's challenges, difficult topics, painful thoughts, and dashed hopes. As a 'young at heart' woman in my 50s, I've navigated many of life's unexpected high and low roads filled with detours and switchbacks. I've worn many hats—daughter, sister, friend, girlfriend, wife, mother, homemaker, older student, divorcee, and ultimately, a compassionate solution-focused strengths-based therapist. Through these roles, I've learned how powerful talk-therapy can be, and I'm familiar with life's sudden wake-up calls and the patterns that can lead us away from our own wants, wishes, and needs. I've been there. We all have histories where we've made good, bad, convenient, and self-defeating decisions based on what we knew. We've also been alongside others who may have done the same and negatively impacted us on our journey. Experience and wisdom can be incredible teachers. Understanding our truths of 'how-when-what-how-why' can be the glue that sets us free from repeating what hurt us most. My innate curiosity, successes, and failures have led me to find the honest answers I needed most and why I became a therapist. I earned my Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a focus on Adult Mental Health and Addiction. I've honed my passion, purpose, and skills to help shorten the learning curve and needless suffering of those facing life's difficult moments and transitions. It isn't always easy to make the decision to seek talk therapy, navigate health insurance, and make your first appointment. I get it. I've been in your position off and on in my life, and it wasn't always as expected. This is why I've done my best to be myself in my profile, voicing my thoughts and experiences naturally. If you find yourself drawn to my style and personality, it will likely bring you relief that I'm approachable, non-judgmental, and a great listener. I ask that you bring a list of questions to our sessions.
