Hi there, I'm Shawna!
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the states of California, Colorado, and New Mexico. I work from the perspective that we all have what we need inside of us to become who we want to be. I believe in your ability to heal and grow as a person.
My focus
I am committed to working with those who suffer from deep emotional traumas, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, life transitions, and grief in ways that bring about relief and lasting change. I meet you where you are with no judgement or expectation. I believe that no one is an expert on your life except you.
My approach
I have found that an integrative approach to counseling works best. I weave modern mental health techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, etc., with techniques like subtle movement, breath work, visualizations, and mindfulness/meditation. I have a non-religious spiritual lens through which I see the world.
