Grow after trauma using post traumatic growth. 

Listen in how beautifully Dr. Shenell Evans defines Post traumatic growth. Regardless of where people fall on the illness—wellness continuum, chronic conditions evoke many issues: sense of grief/loss, sadness, anxiety, anger/frustration, physical/functional limitations, strained relationships, insurance dilemmas, treatment decisions, and, at times, treatment fatigue. For people who wish to reclaim their time will need support as they grieve, regroup, and recreate their lives in order to foster life satisfaction and meaning DESPITE CHRONIC ILLNESS. 

Dr. Shenell Evans infuses positive psychology into her practice. Her training in Applied positive psychology allows her to emphasize the sense of thriving and flourishing. She helps her clients tap into the values to help them pull themselves forward. She helps get people back to base line and then she draws from positive psychology to help with patient care. She emphasizes optimizing our human experience. She taps into the wealth of knowledge to tap into positive neuro-science to help establish habit and routine. She wants to show up as authentically for her patients, for herself, for her family. She emphasizes showing up the best we can to optimize our human experience.
