Gratitude

Sharon, you really helped us when we were all trying our best but not understanding how to help ourselves or what was really happening with our son’s anxiety. I have never been so relieved and thankful for the support and help you gave to our son, and to our family. We learned so much through that and will maintain our awareness and personal growth. We will think of you often and look forward to keeping in touch through your weekly emails and blog, too.

My daughter found the ‘Brain Course’ to be really informative. It helped her with her self-confidence, especially understanding that her anxiety is something that can be controlled and that other children go through, as well.

My daughter was having a really hard time going to school. She would complain of stomach aches, headaches, cry, and refuse to go into the class. A teacher at our school told me about Sharon. Sharon exceeded my expectations. She is warm, welcoming, and genuinely cares about each child in her group. My daughter can now continue her journey in life with skills I wish I had when I was only seven years old, and I as a parent have a better understanding to help my child deal with the ‘worry bugs’.

I could not make a higher recommendation for Sharon Selby's seven week, online Brain Science and Self Empowerment programs.  As a healthcare worker, neuroplasticity nerd and mom this program ticked ALL the boxes. I wish every kid and parent had access to these incredible programs. They have been so supportive and helpful in providing our 8 year old with tools to navigate emotional regulation, anxiety and fear, self compassion and the complexities of social relationships. I LOVED that each class was art based learning. Sharon creates an organized, engaging, supportive and safe space for kids to learn and share what they are learning using their own voice and creative gifts. At first I wondered if a group, Zoom based platform, would work to keep our child involved. I was so pleasantly surprised.  It was wonderful to see how the kids in the group supported each other in peer based learning. They would sometimes share difficulties they were experiencing and the advice and support they gave each other was so heartwarming. Sharon guides the group with curiosity, wisdom and genuine care making sure everyone feels seen, heard and involved to the best of their ability. I really learned so much too and appreciated the final 10 minutes of each class where the parents got caught up on what the kids learned in their 50 minutes together. If you are reading this review and are on the fence about signing up, just do it. These courses have been an absolute game changer for our family.

Our 15 year old son was struggling with anxiety but he's now doing so well and said he's the happiest he's ever been in his life.

Sharon, I'm so thankful our daughter connected with you.  Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for what you have chosen to be and do. It is so important.

I just wanted to let you know that your "Brain Science" course has made a beautiful difference in our daughter's life. She developed an intense fear of the ocean this spring and summer as COVID changed our lives. That fear was very limiting as we live so close to the water. We spent much of the summer doing the same trail walk she was comfortable with in the woods, instead of enjoying local beaches and enjoying the beautiful sea wall near our home. Last weekend, before we headed out the door for that old familiar hike, she said she wanted to walk by the ocean instead. We have so missed doing this walk as a family, but she used to shake and sob if we tried to force it. This past weekend, she was so confident and proud of herself as she walked. You have given her the concept that her fears may not be the truth and she can choose to send them away. Thank you so much!

Thank you, Sharon. I want to let you know how much I value everything you have been teaching me, and to thank you from the  bottom of my heart for all of your support and guidance in helping me to become a better mother to my children.

Sharon possesses that ideal blend of competence and caring. She has in-depth knowledge in several areas of counselling and is consistently professional, collaborative, and effective. She is also a very kind and intuitive person who has a true gift for putting children at ease and helping them engage in the process of change.
