About
Shelly offers innovative mindfulness meditation strategies, primarily based on the Unified Mindfulness System developed by Shinzen Young. This approach focuses on transforming the present moment, rather than analyzing the past, to decrease suffering and elevate fulfillment. The practice serves individuals interested in significant transformation of mind-body suffering, and Shelly has found that the addition of Unified Mindfulness Exposure Desensitization (UMED) leads to an even greater transformative outcome for many clients. Present Solutions is located in Tucson, AZ, and also serves clients in Albuquerque, NM. Shelly has extensive experience as a mindfulness meditation instructor, leading workshops and trainings throughout the U.S. and Canada since 1985. She offers continuing education seminars to mental health professionals, classes for the general public, and has presented in over 100 U.S. cities for both Cross Country Education and PESI Healthcare. Present Solutions also offers a children's book, Binx the Bunny Finds the Happy Place, which gently introduces children to the power of presence, peace, and emotional resilience.
