Sarah Shelton created Home Body Counseling for those looking to feel more calm and connected in their body and relationships. Feeling daily anxiety, overwhelm, immense grief, and pain makes it hard to be present, know ourselves, enjoy our lives, or relate to others. Because our bodies hold onto past experiences, it's important we use our body for healing in therapy. Being able to slow down, witness, and show compassion for our emotions and feelings is how we begin to release accumulated stress from our bodies to become more regulated and find relief. This is your invitation to feel at home and calm in your body, your life. Welcome.
