About Shirell Holmes
At the heart of Solutions to Thrive is Shirell Holmes, LCSW, a dedicated therapist with a profound commitment to supporting individuals through their healing journey. Shirell's academic journey culminated at Rutgers University, where she was awarded a Master's degree in Social Work along with a Certificate for Violence Against Women and Children (VAWC). This specialized education has equipped her with the necessary skills and knowledge to counsel trauma survivors effectively.
With over four years of experience in counseling individuals who have endured domestic and sexual violence or human trafficking, Shirell's practice is built on a foundation of empathy, understanding, and respect. Her approach is deeply rooted in the belief that everyone possesses an inherent strength, often untapped due to the crises they face. Through her guidance, clients learn to recognize and harness this inner power, embarking on a path toward healing and self-discovery.
Therapy Approach
Shirell's methodology is a tapestry of strength-based and client-centered therapies, woven together with the threads of empowerment. She believes in the importance of creating a trusting and supportive environment, where clients feel valued and understood. This nurturing setting allows for the development of personalized treatment plans that are reflective of each individual's unique experiences, thoughts, and feelings.
Her therapeutic arsenal includes a diverse range of orientations such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Play Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Mindfulness Therapy. This eclectic mix ensures that every client's journey is met with the approaches best suited to their healing.
