About Me
My name is Shelvedun (Wayne) Edwards. I believe our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are profoundly connected. Self-awareness is such a crucial step in the path to growth and healing.
My goal as a therapist is to walk collaboratively with you without judgment and assist you with gaining insight into current thoughts, emotions, and behavioral patterns. With this in mind, the hope for optimal mental, emotional, and behavioral functioning is attainable. My hope is that in our working together your insights lead to meaningful changes in your life for the better. Growth happens not only when we understand our patterns but when we are able with proper support to begin to move toward action.
Nothing makes a therapist’s heart beat faster than when a client sees themself as an agent of change in their own life. They start seeing change as a tangible possibility and begin to walk toward it with hope.
I look forward to walking with you on your own unique journey of personal growth and self-discovery.
