Shirlene’s Testimonials

Shirlene Elledge has been my most significant role model as a therapist. She has consistently demonstrated remarkable skill in many areas, but especially that of showing compassion and empathy, while also holding people accountable to their higher selves. It would be impossible for me to measure the benefits I have gained personally from both her Parenting workshop and Elements of Excellence L.I.F.E. Course. I know that some of my success as a counselor and coach can be attributed to the many hours I have spent in her workshops watching and learning from her.”
Beth A Haggett MSW, ACSW, MPEC, PhD

 

“I’ve worked with Shirlene Elledge in two ways over a two-year period. She has excellent skills in one-on-one coaching and in faciliated learning environments. The L.I.F.E. weekend intensive workshop helped me unearth and overcome some core beliefs that were standing in my way both personally and professionally. One-on-one coaching was the second way in which I worked with Shirlene. Her clear insight and articulate coaching included observations and specific decision-making tools that continue to be useful. If you are ready to do some of the challenging personal or organizational work that leads to new perspectives and to new ways of living life, work with Shirlene Elledge.”

“My marriage was on the brink of ending about 20 years ago and being the parent of 5 children just beginning the teenage years about had me over the edge. The programs that the Adlerian Relationship Center had to offer was the saving factor. The Elements of Excellence L.I.F.E. Course was our beginning, the Marriage workshop, and the Parenting class were so helpful. Now our 27 year marriage is thriving and we are enjoying wonderful relationships with our adult children, thanks to these programs. Shirlene Elledge has been a stabilizing factor in my road to emotional healing. The help that she has offered through her facilitating of the L.I.F.E. Course and the Parenting class, as well as some private coaching has been so valuable to me and my family. I would highly recommend any of her workshops to those looking to improve their relationship with themselves or others.

“As an intuitive and loving person, Shirlene’s skills help people search their own hearts to understand themselves. Shirlene makes a person feel safe in exploring desires and making a plan to improve the quality of one’s life and relationships. She desires to make our world a better place ‘one person at a time’ and is on a good path to do so. For over 17 years, I have had the privilege to have her in my life and consider her to be one of my favorite people. In my opinion, anyone is better for experiencing what Shirlene offers in her life and in her workshops.”
Debra Greeff LMSW

 

“I feel it is an honor to recommend Shirlene Elledge. I have had the pleasure to team teach with her for the past ten years at The Adlerian Relationship Center. I have been able to expand my skills through her mentorship. Her skill in teaching has enabled many individuals and families to experience emotional healing. I have come to understand why so many people I meet who know her have always spoken so highly of her and how her tutorship has helped them.”
