Misty Shores

Welcome! I specialize in evidence-based treatment for anxiety disorders, ADHD, Autism, trauma-related concerns, grief, and life transitions. I work with clients across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, first responders, veterans, and families seeking structured support and meaningful change.

I use compassion, warmth, and a touch of humor to help clients feel safe, understood, and at ease during our work together. I also strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore challenges without judgment and reconnect with their strengths.

Therapeutically, I draw from cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed practices, psychodynamic approaches, DBT skills, mindfulness, and strengths-based coaching to support clarity, healing, and growth at each client’s pace.

Inspired by the Tibetan Buddhist concept of the Four Immeasurables—happiness, joy, compassion, and equanimity—my practice reflects a commitment to cultivating emotional resilience and deeper wellbeing in everyday life.

Whether you're seeking support through stress, trauma, neurodivergence, identity development, or life transitions, my role is to walk with you, guide you, and help you discover meaningful change from the inside out.

My approach is contemplative, flexible and integrative, drawing from CBT, trauma-informed care, DBT skills, mindfulness, and strengths-based coaching. Together, we develop strategies tailored to your goals, helping you the life you dream of, building resilience, strength, and clarity. I'll sit with you when things are rough while still celebrating your growth, progress, and small wins. My motto is, "Commit to Sit."

In our first session, we will review your history, reasons for seeking coaching, collaborate on goals, create a time where we can meet weekly and I will answer any questions you may have related to therapy.
