Charles Shinaver, Ph.D.

I want to make it clear that I am the psychologist/​owner of this practice. I just started in this location in April, 2007. Here is a description of how I capture the work I do with my Psychology Today profile:
Have you lost your passion, your heart? Want to stop crying your heart out? Numb with stress? Lost «yourself» in it all? A peaceful pause, an understanding ear, a thoughtful perspective, a warm laugh and help in developing your own skills is what I offer. You want to slow down and make sense of it all. That’s what we’ll do. Put you back in control of your life — of yourself. Maybe you had a setback, lost a relationship or a job, you know there is a gap and you want help. Let’s get started.
You need a safe, peaceful place to sort out your feelings and move forward. First get in touch with your heart and your ‘self’ inside. Then clear thinking, shifting perspective & better relating comes more freely. Let’s find a way from your heart that works.
Unique to my practice is laughing, loving, cherishing & dreaming, helping you do the same again. I intend to live by the spirit with love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness & self-​control. (Galatians 5:22). If this is where you want to go then I will help you find your way together.
As I build this practice there is a process of clarifying my mission and vision and I am engaging in this now. I am traditionally trained as a psychologist. I work with childrden and adults. Creating the emotional and relationship ‘place’ for you to grow is primary, but I also use technology tools to help you to ‘self-​regulate, namely biofeedback and entrainment devices. Go to my website to learn more about it:

Unilocal is a cool idea. I don’t see any other psychologists on here. It is a little trepidatious because the feedback can be both good and bad, but I want to learn from feedback and I want to grow just like I hope you do too! So here I go.
Thanks for checking this out.
