“I have been a client of Shelly since February 2001. Through regular work with Shelly, I have experienced firsthand her expertise, her dedication to my personal evolution, and her heartfelt connection to the universal energy.

My background in education, business, and management kept me in my head for most of my life; unaware of the patterns that kept me separate from others, and more importantly from myself. The crisis resulting from the breakdown of a significant relationship 13 years ago, was the catalyst for the search for myself. I read many self-help books, engaged with various ‘new age’ practices, enquired into other religious philosophies, and tried psychological counselling. After all this, I found my behaviour patterns inherently remained unchanged; rendering these approaches minimally effective. Life patterns were simply repeating themselves.

I then came upon Bodymind Psychotherapy, and a gifted body-worker and therapist—Shelly Towns. She has helped me open up my own life force by penetrating blocks I held in my body and hence my psyche. The most amazing results for me have been a deeper knowledge of myself, a more authentic connection with the people in my life, and a growing heart relationship with the universal energy of God. Once I connected to my own energy, I could start to connect with that of everyone around me. This has been a most precious gift to myself. I feel more deeply. I am now connected with people from a real place (not an ego place), and I see life from a new vista.

I can attest to the skills, compassion, and huge commitment that describe Shelly. Her tireless dedication to my life’s journey, through our process work together, is testimony to who she is as a person, a leader, and a healer. I would highly recommend Shelly’s work, which is supported by her integrity as a person, and her amazing capacity to hold a space for those she heals. She has been a gift to my life’s journey.”
