You’re seeking a guide who truly sees you.

Picture
Not just the polished version you show the world—but the parts you keep tucked away.
The ache you can’t quite name.
The patterns that keep repeating, no matter how much you try to outgrow them.
The exhaustion of carrying so much and feeling so unseen.

You may have learned to survive by shrinking, people-pleasing, or staying silent.
You may wonder if your pain is “too much,” or if healing is even possible.
But here, your truth is safe.
Here, there’s room for all of you—your anger, your softness, your numbness, your longing.
You don’t have to explain it all perfectly. You don’t have to be “ready.”
You just have to begin.

Welcome to Sage & Shadows Counseling!

You’ve found your way here—and that matters.

Whether you arrived with clarity or uncertainty, something in you is reaching for healing, for understanding, for a softer way to be in the world. At Sage & Shadows Counseling, you are welcomed exactly as you are: weary, hopeful, grieving, growing.

This is a space where all parts of you are honored—where your light is celebrated, and your shadows are gently explored with compassion. Together, we’ll untangle old stories, tend to wounded places, and reconnect you with the strength and wisdom that’s already within you.

​You’ve carried the weight quietly, maybe for years. You don’t have to do it alone anymore. There’s no need to have it all figured out. Just bring your truth.
Here, you are seen, safe, and understood.

Learn More About Shakira

Hi, I'm Shakira.

It’s an honor to meet you—I'm truly glad you found your way here.

With over five years of experience supporting adolescents and adults through intensive mental health care, I’ve come to deeply value the courage it takes to step into healing. My work is rooted in a proactive, holistic approach that nurtures not only mental wellness, but also the deeper layers of the soul.
​
As a therapist, I am:
  • ​Kink Allied
  • LGBTQIA+ Allied
  • Neurodivergent Allied
  • Esotericism and Spirituality Allied
  • Open Relationships and Non-Monogamy Allied
​I hold space for the complexities of identity, desire, belief, and experience—because healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. You are welcome here, exactly as you are.

I understand how difficult that first step can be.

Therapy has been on your mind, but life keeps moving, and the timing never feels quite right. The thought of starting over—of finding the right guide—can feel overwhelming. I see you.

​
That’s why I offer a complimentary 20-minute consultation—an open space for you to ask questions, explore my approach, and see if our work together feels right for you. When you're ready, I’m here to walk alongside you.
