Shadow and light Wellness
Mission Statement:
Together, united in a mission to help others find hope within their own darkness, we have created a therapy practice rooted in vulnerability, empathy, and a deep understanding that healing is not linear. We believe that true healing comes from embracing all parts of who we are—especially the painful ones—and allowing them to become the foundation for a new, stronger version of ourselves. Through shared experience, we offer a safe space for individuals to confront their shadows, discover their inner light, and transform their lives, one conversation at a time.
Origin Story
Christina and Samantha have had a shared goal of one day opening a therapy practice together for many years. The journey toward opening Shadow & Light Wellness did not begin with a grand vision-it started in their own hearts, through their own pain, heartbreak, and healing…
Over the years, each found themselves searching for answers knowing the path to healing was not as simple as “fixing” what was broken. It required learning to embrace the full spectrum of their experiences, both the light and the shadow, and finding the strength in each.
At Shadow & Light Wellness we want to offer a space where people do not have to hide parts of themselves that have been hidden away. Instead, it is a place where confronting the darkness within isn’t something to fear but a journey leading to profound growth and healing. Shadows do not need to be avoided or hidden – they can be embraced as part of the journey allowing us to live in our light.
At the heart of Shadow & Light Wellness, is the belief that everyone carries light within them. Along the way one’s light can become hidden in the shadows created by life experiences. We believe that when people are provided the space and support to face those shadows, they can reclaim their light in ways they never thought possible.
