Introducing Marlene Shiple, Ph.D. …

Dr. Marlene Shiple

“This is YOUR Life! You write the script!”

… for your Life Transition — whether that is the awesome upcoming event of Retirement, or another opportunity for exciting change and exhilarating challenge. Your subconscious mind creates what you are thinking … in exactly the way you are thinking it! Your subconscious mind doesn’t care what it creates; it just simply creates. However, it IS creating what you are thinking or telling yourself about an event.

As a result, it is vitally important that you create a mindset that brings life’s BEST your way!

As a psychotherapist and life transitions coach in private practice, I have dedicated years of education, heart-centered interventions with clients, and attention to developing specialized techniques and tools in the service of the clients who have come to me for assistance. My values and aspirations, as well as the unique aspects of my approach, can be articulated as follows:

1.     Empowering Self-Discovery: I believe in empowering you, as my client not just with answers, but with the tools and knowledge to solve your own life challenges and transitions. Instead of simply providing answers, I guide you as my client through a process of self-discovery, helping you uncover your own unique path to fulfillment in navigating life transitions.

2.     Transformational Guidance: My journey from tutoring classmates in grade- school studies to counseling and life coaching reflects my passion for facilitating transformative change in others’ lives. I aspire to be a catalyst for personal growth and development, guiding you as my client through the process of growth, self-understanding and empowerment.

3.     Holistic Approach: I recognize that true success and fulfillment stem from a holistic balance in all aspects of life—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. My counseling and coaching methodology integrates these dimensions to provide comprehensive support for you as my client as you strive for life balance and holistic well-being.

4.     Personalized Solutions: Understanding that each client is unique, I tailor my approach to meet the specific needs and goals of each client. Through personalized strategies and techniques, I ensure that you as my client are receiving customized support that resonates with your personality, values, and aspirations.

5.     Subconscious Programming: Drawing on my expertise in psychology, I specialize in harnessing the power of the subconscious mind to manifest desired life outcomes. By assisting you as my client in programming your subconscious beliefs and behaviors, I facilitate profound and lasting transformations that go beyond surface-level changes.1.    

6. Relationship Enrichment: My experience in guiding others through interpersonal challenges equips me with valuable insights into relationship dynamics. Whether it's navigating conflicts, enhancing communication, or fostering deeper connections, I offer expert guidance to help clients cultivate fulfilling relationships in all areas of life.

7.     Results-Oriented Approach: My ultimate goal is to deliver tangible, measurable results for you as my client. Through a combination of proven techniques, practical tools, and unwavering support, I empower you to achieve your goals, overcome obstacles, and create the life you envision for yourself.

8.     Inspirational Leadership: As a visionary leader in the field of counseling and life coaching, I endeavor to inspire clients to reach their full potential and live authentically. My passion, authenticity, and unwavering commitment to personal growth serve as a beacon of hope and motivation for clients seeking positive change in their lives.

It is my fond hope that by embodying these values and offering these unique aspects in my practice, I stand out as a dynamic and transformative force in the world of counseling, psychotherapy, and life coaching. I desire to offer you this gift as you undertake transformational changes in your life. Through our therapy work together, I endeavor to help you enrich your life and be empowered to thrive.
