My name is Sheila Pakkala and as owner of Personal Wellness Group LLC, I help my clients strive to attain personal wellness in their life.  As a certified addictions counselor with addictions counseling experience at the baccalaureate proficiency level, I’m trained in helping individuals and families create lasting change through individual and group counseling models using evidence-based approaches. 

I am the creator of Do You Know Someone©️ series designed to provide education about use disorders and offer support to those affected by someone's use disorder in a group setting.  The Mental Health and Addiction Certification Board of Oregon has approved this series for 8 continuing education units for behavioral health professionals.

ABOUT SHEILA:
She is knowledgeable, non-judgmental, and provides a safe environment that encourages exploration and growth.
Sheila’s greatest joy is found in spending time with family, including 4 adult sons, their wives, and her grandchildren. She finds refreshment when she and her husband are enjoying Southern Oregon’s natural beauty or traveling to various venues to catch a concert with her favorite bands of the 70’s and 80’s .
