Our
Story
Named after her children, DNA Counseling is run by Shirley Mathieu LCSW. Shirley originally counseled children, but through the 2020 pandemic, she found a passion for helping women, especially those who have experienced complex trauma. Shirley specializes in aiding those who are going through infidelity, grief issues, and communication with couples.
Raised in New York by first-generation parents and having lived in South Florida, Shirley understands the importance of understanding a client's cultural background to inform the present and therapeutic mediums. She knows going to therapy can be loaded with stigma, and strives to create a comforting, supportive environment for people from all backgrounds.
If you're interested in a place where you can discuss your differences, understand your internal world and voice, learn to love and respect yourself and incorporate these messages to live your most beautiful and authentic life, then Shirley is the therapist for you.
