Getting to know Shirley Gutierrez
Are you a woman feeling stuck in life? As if no matter what you do, it’s never good enough for anyone, including yourself? Does guilt sit on your shoulder, whispering that small voice to keep you doing things for everyone else but yourself? Have you felt unloved or unwanted for as long as you can remember? Is this affecting your work, education, relationships with family and friends, self-esteem, or health?
What if I told you that you are not alone? What if life doesn’t have to be this way? What if you could make small changes and begin to live the life of your dreams?
With my no-BS approach to therapy, I empower women to overcome overwhelming anxiety, guilt, and low self-esteem, and to learn boundaries and skills that lead to a more rewarding life. You will take back your life and start building the one you once only dreamed of—one where you are capable, powerful, and ENOUGH.
Using an eclectic, person-centered approach, I help you learn new methods and do the work needed to create the life you desire. I can promise you this will be 100% worth your time. I am excited to be on this path with you.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Nevada, Reno. Schedule your appointment today!
What should a new client know about working with you?
After your first session, you will realize that you are not alone in your feelings. I often hear “There are others out there like me?!” Together we will discuss your goals and make them happen one step at a time. I often hear from clients that once they begin to implement the tools learned in sessions, they see positive outcomes. Sometimes I see individuals that simply wish to talk to someone that can help them see their feelings are perfectly normal given the situation.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
