My goal is to provide you with a safe, emotional space where you will feel comfortable, relaxed and know that you are being heard. I want you to be able to express yourself freely without any fear of judgement. Healing takes place when you are able to be open, honest and vulnerable. Throughout my practice, it has been an honor to help facilitate extraordinary transformation in the lives of my clients. Believe me when I say that, “Anything is possible,” as I have witnessed my clients overcome trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and hardcore drug addiction.


Often, our feelings of shame, hurt and fear rob us of the opportunity to experience true joy and fulfillment in our lives. Do you find yourself running from these feelings or always fighting against them? Instead, I can help you embrace them and work through them. It is through this process of transformation where you learn to find acceptance, meaning

and purpose in your life. This leads to living with self-authenticity, and this is when you experience true joy and fulfillment. I look forward to being your catalyst for change. Together, we will take this journey and progress at your own pace. I encourage you to take the first step and make an appointment. Your life is worth it!

Therapist

I believe in our capacity to adapt, grow, love, grieve, overcome & thrive. Stressful events, trauma, loss, illness & change can overwhelm our ability to cope. We become stuck. We protect ourselves to avoid ever feeling that pain again. Solutions that once worked become part of the problem. When the wound is triggered, we experience pain & distorted ways of thinking. In therapy, we journey together to uncover & remove blocks to healing, transforming pain & loss into meaning, awareness & choice.

Shayna Weil

Shayna Weil

Therapist

Virtual • Colorado


What should your client know about you?

Hi, I’m Shayna Weil, MA, LPC — a professional counselor based in Colorado. Since completing my Master’s in Counseling and Art Therapy from Adler University in 2020, I’ve been dedicated to supporting others through life’s ups and downs. I know how heavy the world can feel at times, and I also know how healing it can be to feel truly seen, heard, and connected.

What is your approach to therapy?

I’m passionate about helping people grow, heal, and create more fulfilling lives. My approach is grounded in mindfulness, creativity, and practical skill-building to support lasting, meaningful change.

I primarily work with adults and understand how challenging it can be to unlearn old patterns from childhood. I bring patience, compassion, and trust in the process to every session, meeting clients where they are and walking with them at their own pace.

What can clients expect from their first session with you?

In our first session, I’ll take time to listen to what brought you in and get a sense of what’s been feeling challenging or important for you lately. We’ll move at your pace, explore what you’d like to work on, and begin creating a plan together that feels supportive and realistic for your goals. My goal is to help you feel heard, comfortable, and hopeful about the path forward.
