Shelley Friss owns Lions & Butterflies and it was created from her desire to help, heal and empower children who are experiencing the effects of alcoholism within the family. There is a desperate need and niche within our local community for this particular field of coaching.

Shelley is a qualified Teacher and received her Bachelor of Education from the University of Alberta and has taught in Calgary and Red Deer for many years.

Shelley is highly experienced in being able to offer this effective, individualized coaching. Shelley understands first hand how it feels to be raised in an alcoholic environment thus enabling her to be sympathtic and compassionate towards others having this same experience.
