I found Shirley when I was at a very difficult point in my life.
Coming from a very abusive childhood background my feelings of self worth were almost diminished. I always felt I did not deserve to be loved unconditionally and accepted what little I was given. I came to Shirley initially because me and my boyfriend came to the end of our relationship. I started therapy for my issues first and later we did group meetings. That is when I was faced with the truth I didn't want to see. My boyfriend was, after all not that good of a guy. Shirley opened my eyes and made me see, that I m worth so much more and that I deserved better. I learned to love myself again and to find the good person inside of me. I made some life altering decisions and moved on. I will keep in close contact with this wonderful and life saving women, that probably kept me from making big mistakes in my future. I m so happy I found her and believe it was meant to be. Thank you, Shirley. What a wonderful, kind and nurturing person you are. I wish I had a mother like you.
