Hi there, I'm Shannon!

I am a directive, approachable, and collaborative LMFT who supports clients with clarity, warmth, and trauma-informed care.

My focus

Individuals who need to heal and build resilience, strength, and create meaningful, lasting changes.

My approach

My approach integrates CBT, Experiential Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy.

My communication style

My communication is fluid with empathy, curiosity, and respect with clarity. Providing in-depth exploration of emotion, and feedback that creates an open dialogue with direction that is offered by invitation.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey toward becoming a therapist has been one of deep soul searching, continual learning, and gaining insight into how human behavior shapes our inner world. Along the way, I’ve come to understand the profound need to heal generational trauma and patterns that have impacted not just individuals, but all of us across families and communities.

My goals for you

Both the client and I will collaborate within their limits, expectations, and goals are stated clearly, which creates safety rather than distance.

Our first session

In our first session, you can expect a welcoming, grounded space where we focus on getting to know one another. I’ll invite you to share what brings you to therapy, We’ll move at a pace that feels comfortable, while also, experiences, that may be shaping your current challenges.
