Wellness is a measure of a person’s mental and physical health, and is used to characterize a person’s overall health and well-being. While health generally refers only to a person’s physical–and sometimes psychological–health, wellness assessments take into account a number of factors that can affect health, such as stable relationships, exercise, nutrition, access to clean water, and the safety and security of a person’s living situation.

The Mindful Bodies Community

“Supervision with Shawnta has been the most informative, culturally grounded, flexible to meet your needs, and idea-forming meetings I never knew I needed. Whatever she notices about you, she brings it forward into the light and she’s always given me non-directive open feedback that has led to some really great opportunities and future-oriented plans that I’m not sure I would’ve thought of  without her encouragement, optimism and insightfulness.”

— Kaneisha Evans, LCMHCA

“I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to attend many Mindful Bodies Parties, both as an instructor and as a student. It is a vibe EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. What I love most is the diversity. The diversity of the instructors, the participants, and the music selection. It literally is a dance party for ALL. I highly recommend you checking out the next one!”

— Meladie Adams

“Shawnta is awesome! | learned so much under her supervision. She modeled for me how it looks to be my authentic self while caring for clients. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for supervision.”

— Ingle Reid, LCMHCA

“Shawnta was my supervisor when I was provisionally licensed counselor. 10/10 - she provided a space where you could learn and build confidence in yourself. I loved that she also provided networking opportunities to showcase counselors in various settings. Shawnta cares deeply about her supervisees and pours into them, empowering them to succeed. She's a phenomenal supervisor, clinician, and I'm glad to know her!”

— Clarie King, LCMHCA

“My husband and I worked with Shawnta for personal training, and I also joined her cognitive therapy–based weight loss group, which helped me completely shift my thinking around food, exercise, and self-talk. She creates a warm, positive, and inclusive environment where everything is confidential, everyone feels genuinely seen and supported. She gave us assignments, tips, and practical strategies. I’ve gained tools I can use every day, and I’m truly grateful for the lasting impact she had on both of us.”

— Gwen Rubio & Petey Rubio

“She is a very positive person, and with much inspiration and passion for what she does, and the program is excellent.”

— Cecy Midence
