That awareness began a 40-year transformation from a passive victim to resilient warrior. For 29 years, Shari has been a Therapist and has managed several mental health treatment centers and psychiatric facilities. She has spent the last 5 years consulting and training therapists, counselors and CEO's on how to implement evidence-based practices and trauma ingrained care.
