Shyra Stubbs

Welcome! I'm Shyra Stubbs, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a psychotherapist, who specializes in integrative psychotherapy and founder of The Light Within Therapeutic Services.

I am a graduate (2016) of the great University of Southern Mississippi (Eagles 😊) in which I hold a master’s degree in social work and a bachelor's degree in psychology (2008).

I have fifteen years of experience working with teens and adults that are faced with mental health challenges and behavioral concerns.

Holistic approach

Holistic therapy is a combination of many modalities, which focuses on the client's physical, social, emotional, psychological, and spiritual concerns and needs. The idea of holistic practice is addressing and/or treating the client as a whole rather than solely focusing on the client's presenting symptoms or identified problems.

Session will be a space that allows clients to express themselves freely and practice emotional liberation ("shining a light on your own feelings and need to express self-empathy"). The client and I will work collaboratively, which includes the client's personal goals, examine behavioral outcomes and get/give feedback to measure effectiveness. As your therapist, my ultimate goal for you, the client is that you exhibit psychological growth, transformation and healing.
