Hello! I'm Shannon, a therapist specializing in healing betrayal trauma. I support those affected by infidelity and partners of sex/porn addiction. Navigating the aftermath of betrayal is complex, isolating and overwhelming. This can profoundly disrupt one's sense of trust and safety leading to physical, mental, and emotional impacts. Often follows is an overarching pressure to decide what to do next. Such experiences can shake one's very foundation, leading to concerns with trust, intimacy, attachment and self-esteem. If you are experiencing the aftermath of being cheated on, you deserve specialized trauma-informed care & support.

Couples therapy can help uncover core issues causing the conflicts in your relationship.

We can work through conflicts occurring in your relationship to help you both feel more supported and connected.

Je suis bilingue & j'offre mes services and anglais et en français. An Associate at Laura Murton Psychotherapy, I work with clients to alleviate symptoms; cope in new ways with grief, life transitions, family and parenting issues, breakups, separation, divorce, infidelity, social issues, school issues, and work-related issues; and heal from trauma, domestic and family conflict or abuse, sexual abuse or assault, and attachment issues.

I specialize in intensive couple therapy to create safe, and secure-functioning relationships. I explore attachment styles (developed early in life) so that couples understand why they say and do the things they do. With my guidance, couples define mutually-shared agreements that will provide a framework for operating as a team. And with this shared vision, they can learn to successfully manage any disagreements or disappointments that life may bring. My goal is to help each couple feel they are safe and secure, in each other's care, no matter the issue. I am a Level 11 PACT therapist.
