Heal, Grow, and Thrive with Therapy That Goes Beyond the Couch

“I do not know how I got so lucky finding a therapist that met me where I was and fit my needs to work through my trauma, on the first attempt, but I did with Shannon. I had never been to a therapist before and was at a point of being so completely overwhelmed by anxiety that I could not see a way out. Shannon immediately made me feel comfortable and heard. She took the time to learn what approach would best fit my needs and took a solution-oriented approach that helped me not only move through my anxiety and depression but also forward with the tools I needed to acknowledge and care for myself. My mental health has improved more than I even hoped possible, because of her dedication and support.”

“I would first like to start with Thanking God for the biggest blessing it has been to have Shannon as my therapist for the past 5 years. I believe she’s been a saving Grace on so many levels to help me through my grieving process of various loved ones in these last 5 yrs, especially because they were all so close together and not to mention while I’m trying to grasp learning that I had SLE Lupus, amongst multiple autoimmune diseases that I’m still continuously being diagnosed with. I appreciate the tools, resources, guidance, and support. There are so many more things I could go on and on about. I love that I was able to connect and feel like for once I could open up about what I’d been bottling up inside for so long. She just made me so comfortable that I felt my intuition telling me that I could trust her too.”

“My son and I have both worked with Shannon for over 4 years now. Shannon’s unique approach using horses to teach self-regulation and empathy has made such a powerful impact on my son, who has struggled to make connections with therapists in the past. Shannon’s calm demeanor and ability to understand tough situations that adolescents experience have helped my son open up and be receptive to her therapeutic approach. Shannon is not only committed to helping my son, but she also takes time to understand our family dynamics and teaches me parenting techniques that strengthen my relationship with my son. Shannon goes above and beyond our scheduled sessions to advocate for additional resources to help not only my son but our whole family. We feel blessed to have the chance to work with Shannon and look forward to our continued growth. “

“Shannon gives me clarity when there is fog, grounding when there is turmoil, and perspective when I stray. My path with her is filled with learning and deep appreciation. She helps me experience my role and relationship with a vibrant, connected, vitally important natural world.”

“My husband and I first met with Shannon after about 6 years of marriage and shortly after having a child when things were looking glum for us and we had recently been living separated. We wanted to see if couples therapy could help us turn things around. Shannon was wonderful to work with, she never made either of us feel judged or criticized, and was very helpful in finding solutions and different perspectives to our problems or help us communicate our needs to one another better. We often needed mutually agreed upon strategies for better communication especially surrounding parenting and the things she suggested quite literally had a huge hand in saving our communication problems, and overall marriage. After working with her we have a better relationship than ever, and we both feel that these skills have translated to other relationships in our lives as well. We understand one another better and have more empathy, and the ability to balance both of our wants & needs in the relationship. I recommend Shannon to anyone I know who’s looking for a couples therapist, she was life changing for us!”

“My partner and I have a relationship as romantic partners, coworking entrepreneurs, and caregiver/cared for. We sought Shannon’s therapeutic help for very complex dynamics between all these roles in which she has provided nothing but the best care in flexibly accommodating our unique situation, making us both feel easily cared while also challenging us with a comfortably gradual intensity, having a quickly intuitive understanding of mostly every problem we brought to her attention or which she saw in us, and while being so excellent in her work she maintains a presence and energy that is safe, comfortable, accessible, light-hearted, and even fun! We have thought the world of her care and are excited for others who experience her effective practice!”

“I would absolutely recommend Shannon to my friends without a second thought. Shannon is very consistent in rooting out the sources or roots of problems, to the point that she at times feels like a mind-reader. Her ability to pull together many pieces of information over the course of several sessions into a cohesive, clear, and uniquely insightful probe, question, or statement. Really, it’s quite impressive. At various points, Shannon has said things that take me back and restructure how I’ve always thought about a topic or person. Her consistency of insight and intuition is something that none of my past therapists have been able to consistently achieve and I admire her greatly for it.”
