I am Seryna, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Educator. I moved from my home
state of Philadelphia, PA to the Marietta, GA area to find peace and security for my family. That
move from the north to the south was a learning experience not only due to the culture change
but also due to the many transitions in life. The transition from a nurse of seven years was to
combine my medical knowledge with mental wellbeing. From that time on I focused more on the
factors that most affect wellbeing, mental wellbeing, mental health, diet, exercise, and personal
expectations. My nonprofit “Shape My World Inc” provides targeted support and education to
minority families exploring the close relationship between diet, exercise, unwanted behaviors
and family struggles. I am focused on building up my clients to empower them towards their
goal whatever that is to them. Over the past 9 years I have been a professional school counselor
working with students and their families in surrounding school districts where there are pressing
needs. To promote change I also teach and mentor incoming school counselors in training at the
master’s level.
Women have particular challenges often relating to or affecting the dynamics with our families,
friends, careers, and even personal contentment. My therapeutic services are holistic in nature,
meaning I work with you to understand what your concerns are and how they are affecting your
life. With this knowledge we can start working through your concerns with a plan and clearer
understanding that many systems are linked in our bodies. The emphasis will always be personal
empowerment, allowing you to take ownership of your actions to make positive changes that can
lead to long term contentment. I firmly believe that all individuals/families have the potential to
achieve their realistic goals to have a fulfilling and productive life. Together I guide my clients
towards discovering personal strengths and acknowledging their abilities while addressing areas
of concern while. With that a sense of control can be gained as growth is seen.
My areas of special interest:
Mind and Body Wellness
Women's Wellbeing Concerns
Depression
Relational Dynamics
Couples Communication
My therapeutic approaches:
I am trained in and use Cognitive-Behavior Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy (SFT),
and Reality Therapy (RT) as my main modalities but I am also informed by positive psychology
and compassion-focused approaches. I work in a trauma-informed manner.
