Hi, I'm Josephine Sheppard
I am the founder of Integrative Therapies & Consulting (IT&C). For over two decades I have dedicated myself to providing educational and supportive services that promote holistic and natural heath, and personal and spiritual development.
People that utilize the services provided through Integrative Therapies & Consulting experience a holistic approach to their care and support.
They discover a new perspective, expand their personal tools in self-care for mind, body, and spirit, and find they are taught ways to be self-empowered in the process.
I have carefully chosen the Associates that provide services in collaboration with IT&C because I firmly believe they are highly skilled in their modalities and specialties, and meet the high standards of being culturally diverse, respectful, and compassionate - while being dedicated to supporting the goals and aspirations of our clientele.
Our Approach
Why IT&C? What is Integrative Therapies & Consulting?
I thought about my style and approach to working with clients and my passion for natural and holistic healthcare that integrates all aspects of the human 'being' - body, mind, and spirit.
To be human, as you and I are, means we experience emotions - that are a built-in guidance system. We have a body, that was brilliantly created with every cell and atom having its own intelligence and connection to the Source of Energy that is maintaining and holding it all together. And we have a brain that receives and relays data from our world, our mind, and all the systems that compile the physical mechanism. And we are the spiritual consciousness expressed through the physical form - as it is an extension of us.
We are multifaceted, multidimensional beings.
Somewhere along the way, we learned that our "humanness" was not okay.
It's okay to be human, curious, grow, and change (evolve).

HSP-Empathic and Empowered: Expanding My Perspective by Josephine Sheppard
Review by Pamela J. Boydston, BS, LPTA, LMT, NCTMB
​
"The author takes the reader on the intimate journey of an empath’s developing awareness of her deep connection to the Great Source and shares how the reader can do the same.
Josephine teaches you how to recognize and develop your true inner self. If there is negative self-talk or negative energies from the outside world there are instructions on how to realign to the Great Source. The goal being to love and thrive.
I enjoyed this book so much that I am going to reread it slowly to soak in as much information as possible. It taught me a great deal about self acceptance and the beautiful power of love. As an HSP, it showed me how to accept this trait as a blessing and not a curse, and to skillfully change the negative thought patterns to realign yourself with God."
