Allow me to introduce myself!

Hello, my name is Sha-Lai Williams, but most people call me Dr. S. I wear many hats, but all of them boil down to one thing: "what's my why"?

I have been on a journey of life-changing metamorphosis and transformation. I have spent time divorcing people, places, and things that I'd previously allowed to hold me in bondage. Well, in 2021, I said, no longer!! I want to fully WALK in the liberty I've been given in Christ, prioritize His will and myself, pursue every passion I have, and live life on purpose. And I know I'm not alone.

I now see that my past and pain were necessary to position my purpose. Those events (and more) birthed a heartfelt desire and ministry to help Black women stop putting themselves last, delaying their hopes and dreams, and failing to life their abundant life. Instead, it is my goal to help you prioritize yourself, while determining and pursuing your passion(s), so you can start living purposefully! Allow me to partner with you and help you shift from stuck to starting to success.

Before you contact me, you may have a very important question: why choose me? In a time where the terms therapist, counselor, coach, and consultant are often used interchangeably, I assure you there are important differences. I am formally trained as a social worker (BSW & MSW), am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) for over 20 years, been in private practice three times, received my PhD in 2013 from the #1 School of Social Work in the nation, and have taught budding social workers for nearly 14 years.

I don't share this to brag; simply to let you know that if you choose to work with me, you are gaining an accomplished, qualified, and well-trained individual. I promise to utilize all my expertise, knowledge, and skill sets to help you make the shift from stuck to starting to success.
