Shaun Wilson, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Shaun!

Being a therapist is my purpose and my passion. I decided to become a therapist after healing my own childhood trauma and realizing that what I went through, could be used as a gift to help others heal and grow. I want clients to know that they are not alone on their journey of healing, that they will feel supported, empowered, and safe with me.

My focus

I want to meet the client where they are, not where I want them to be, and provide insight, guidance, and support to meet their goals of healing. As your therapist, I want to provide support along your journey of self-discovery and be a light of encouragement so that you know how important and valuable you are. You are not alone.

My approach

My approach to therapy is to provide a safe, supportive, and warm environment for clients to express their feelings, emotions, and difficulties in life. Utilizing a client-centered approach with cognitive behavioral therapy and empathy. It is my goal for clients to feel validated, nurtured, and supported during each session.

My communication style

I am very authentic, kind, and considerate of the needs of every client. I'm also not afraid to expose the truth of healing, promote accountability, and understanding in a very loving and supportive manner. I also want to provide the care that the client feels is important to them, so I'm open to feedback as well.

My journey to mental healthcare

Unfortunately, I had a lot of early childhood trauma, and as painful as that was, it also gave me a gift. Almost like a 6th sense for better understanding individuals struggling with low self-worth, sadness, a loss of hope, and burnout from merely existing. I was able to heal from that trauma and see life as a gift, and that's why I want to help.

My goals for you

Goals are essential, however, the journey is of more importance. Life is going to happen and it's important for me to direct and guide the client towards that healing. Empowering clients to love themselves on that journey will provide the necessary encouragement for clients to reach those goals.

Our first session

In the first session, clients will be introduced to the therapeutic process, and any questions or concerns will be addressed so you feel informed and comfortable moving forward. We’ll also begin gathering information about your experiences, challenges, and goals to help build a strong foundation for our work together. You will feel safe with me.
