Devereux Georgia Highlights

Devereux Georgia would like to highlight Shannon Turner and the work she has done with our clients through her organization StoryMuse. StoryMuse provides strategies for our clients to share their truth through storytelling in a safe therapeutic way. Ms. Turner helps our clients develop techniques to share and build empathy through reality-based storytelling.

This unique storytelling allows our clients to talk about the trauma they’ve experienced in a meaningful and organized way. Storytelling is often a huge step in the therapeutic process.

We are grateful for the work Ms. Turner has done with our clients.
