Everyone is uniquely created and each encounter God and His care in very individualistic ways. From there, each reflect God's glory uniquely as well, each a beautiful piece of jewelry (segullah).

Thanks to Shelley, I am finally free from the grip of people-pleasing. Shelley's approach helped me heal from trauma that was holding me captive to the burden of worrying about what others think. Now, I live authentically, grounded in faith and the power of The Holy Spirit. I am so grateful for Shelley's compassion, wisdom, and relentless pursuit of truth and freedom for her clients. I highly recommend Shelley to anyone seeking transformation and a deeper walk with God.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Emotional Trauma Release protocol changed my life. I was initially led to explore this Emotional Trauma Release protocol during the most difficult period of my life, in which I was suffering from immense anxiety, isolation, and PTSD from my earlier years, in addition to a variety of addictions and numbing mechanisms that I indulged in daily in an attempt to hide from my pain. Though initially skeptical and confused as to what the nature of the Emotional Trauma Release protocol even was, I nonetheless felt God calling me into it - and subsequently - to trust the process of healing to Him throughout this entire process.  What followed was one of the most profound and incredible experiences of my life, in which God completely delivered me from a life-long pornography addiction—and even more incredibly, I was delivered of my addiction without even mentioning the issue at all—it was just a beautiful partnership between my personal surrender, and God sovereignty and love for me. I have continued to pursue the Emotional Trauma Release protocol ever since, and through this ministry, God has healed my anxiety, repaired unhealthy dynamics within my family system, and is restoring me more and more into who I was created to be. I thank God every day for how He has used this Emotional Trauma Release protocol in my life, and I pray that He would lead others to embark on this journey of healing and deliverance as well!

For over 15 years, I had battled chronic pain throughout my body that countless doctors, specialists, and different treatments had failed to diagnose properly and treat. I went to Shelley a little skeptical, but thinking I had nothing to lose by trying her protocol. After identifying some trauma I had stored in my body, I walked out of my first session 95% free of the pain I had lived with for so long. A few more sessions later, and I am now living completely pain free! If traditional counseling or western medicine have left you feeling stuck or failing to find the answers you are seeking, I highly recommend Shelley and this Spirit led approach to healing. Indeed, God is our Great Physician and He knows how to heal us in the deepest places of our bodies, souls, minds and spirits.

It's hard to describe in words exactly what  Shelley really did for me, but I can tell you that I will never be the same. It was a very spiritual experience that I will never forget. She helped me overcome things in my past that I didn't even remember happening. She helped God reveal to me that I had a purpose and a mission.  Because of a traumatic childhood I was plagued by self-doubt and low self esteem. It's hard to fathom that God could love me when my own father couldn't love me. I thought I was just unlovable. Shelley showed me that wasn't true. I began to see God moving in my life and started to learn just how much God really loves me. For the first time in my life I trust God and have faith that He wants what is best for me. I owe it all to Shelley Johnson and her amazing work. Thank you, Shelley and Segullah Ministries!

In the Fall of 2016, one of my Denver Seminary professors put me in touch with Shelley Johnson.  He knew I was going through a very difficult time in my personal life.  I had been to many Christian counselors but I had never enlisted the help of a spiritual director so I was not sure what to expect but I decided to give it a try.  Looking back, meeting Shelley has truly been one of the greatest blessings in my life and I cannot imagine getting through the past nine months without her!

As she described it, her role was to usher me into the Father’s presence where together, we would trust HIM to be the ultimate Director.  She had such a warm and engaging personality.  She was compassionate as she listened to my situation and I felt totally comfortable with her.  Even in our first meeting I had some wonderful quality time with the Lord and what I experienced was so much richer and deeper than any counseling session I had ever attended.  It was different than counseling—I felt I could share openly with her but she led me into Jesus’ presence, which ministered to me in a more powerful and personal way than any human could.

Frankly I had a mis-construed image of God (and of myself!).  Shelley has patiently and faithfully brought me into His presence session after session to invite HIM to minister to my soul and discover my true self.  Over these past months I have come to see God as the loving Father that he is, and I have come to see myself as the beloved daughter that I am.  I honestly do not believe I could have come to this realization on my own (or if I could, it would have taken YEARS!).  She helped me get “unstuck” from the difficult place I was in.  I have experienced a true deepening of my calling, a clarity of my identity, and a fresh love for Jesus and being in his presence!

I know Shelley relies on the Holy Spirit to guide her because she always knows the right question to ask or the right “assignment” to give me.  She made me feel like our time together was a priority and she showed up to every meeting totally present and ready to work with me.  I always walk out of our sessions feeling lighter, freer, more known, and more loved by God.  I simply can’t say enough good things about her.  She has been a gift from God and I am so grateful that our paths have crossed!

I have been a follower of Jesus for forty years. I have pursued God earnestly and faithfully. I have followed God's call and have labored for His Kingdom for over 20 years. Though I've been faithful, I've also become blind to the hidden corners of my heart. As my spiritual director, Shelley has been instrumental in shining a light into those hidden corners. Some of those hidden corners need to be cleaned out and brought to light, some of those corners need to be unlocked and allowed to develop meaningfully. When Shelley sits with me, she listens with me. She helps me discern which voice belongs to the Spirit and which voice belongs to my insecurity. She speaks truthfully and compassionately into my life. Placing myself under her direction has been one of the most wise and spiritually adventurous gifts I could receive from the Lord. Shelley is a highly qualified spiritual director and I cannot recommend her enough to anyone seeking to deepen their faith

I met with Shelley for a couple of years while I was working as a middle school youth pastor for a local church. When we met I always felt like I was having my soul uplifted. Like a massage for the heart. Meeting with Shelley and the experiences she created for me really allowed me to experience Jesus in a way I never had before. She created a space in which He was able to speak directly to me in profound ways. Shelley's style is very caring and kind and gentle. I know that she spent much time in prayer asking the Holy Spirit to guide her in creating our times together. I have moved away from Denver now, but I will forever be grateful for what my time with Shelley did for me and how it brought me closer to the Lord in the most real way possible.
