Water Shepherd
Hello, my name is Water Shepherd. I am very passionate about helping people and providing the quality services my company delivers. I have over 30 years of of human service experience and I specialize in mental health and wellness. I have some really solid people that I am blessed to have working with me who also have a wealth of knowledge and skills.
I have learned a few things along the way in this life journey and I know that life can be stressful and it is important for us to stay balanced, grounded and healthy.
I have direct experience of working with persons affected by stress, anxiety, and other difficult conditions. Out of a strong desire to continue to help as many people as I can, I have combined my experience, education and expertise and have expanded my services to bring my consulting practice to organizations to help people thrive!
Third Eye Integration has grown from it’s humble beginnings offering services to individuals and private groups, to contracting with corporations and various healthcare facilities. I am excited to announce that we are now providing a wide array of services such as corporate wellness consulting, employee wellness services, and behavioral health facility consulting.
Let’s work together to bring mental health and wellness services to all who need it!
