How many times have you caught yourself thinking, “Seriously, what is going on with my life?” Maybe you’re feeling the weight of juggling work, strained relationships, and the constant pressure to keep it all together—while barely managing to stay afloat. If you’re a parent, you might be determined to do better for your kids, but sometimes, it feels like the old cycles are creeping back in. It's exhausting and can feel like nothing really sticks, no matter what you try. I don’t believe in quick fixes or easy answers, because, let’s be honest, they don’t work in the long run!

Do you feel like life is chaos and you’re all alone? Like none of your relationships are working out and that there’s always a crisis to address? Maybe you’ve been told you’re too much or too sensitive and that you need to get over things that have happened to you in the past.

Do you struggle with feeling overwhelmed or that stress is getting in the way of enjoying your life? Is there a heaviness you feel that make regular activities seem difficult or challenging? Are there past experiences that show up in your present and make it difficult to function, like you don't feel quite like yourself or enjoy things you used to?

Feb. 10/26 - Currently accepting new clients. I work with adult women (often in the helping professions) who are experiencing burnout, stress, anxiety, exhaustion, unhappiness, and resentment, at work and in their personal relationships. If this is you, I can help you to process the realities of your situation, understand what unconscious patterns might be playing a role, and develop a more grounded and peaceful way of being. My approach is exploratory and collaborative, as together we work to understand your issues of concern, see alternative perspectives, and find effective responses that can begin to shift your life situation.

Welcoming new clients! Like the transition from fall to winter, we all go through seasons that threaten our livelihood and shake us from thriving to dormancy. This often leaves us questioning our meaning and purpose. Your experience may be a devastating loss, lack of energy, motivation, and enjoyment in activities and people that once brought you joy or physical and psychological restlessness. It is difficult in such states to understand how flourishing is possible. However, there is hope! Just as winter gives way to spring showers and new life springs forth to flourishing, neither is your situation hopeless; you can thrive again.

I work with people who want to feel more grounded, understood, and in control of their lives, regardless if they are navigating trauma, stress, anxiety, chronic pain, the effects of ABI/TBI/FND, and women's mental health across the lifespan. My clients typically are looking for relief, clarity, and practical tools that actually help day to day with their challenging situations and symptoms. They want a safe, steady space to make sense of what they’re going through and to build real resilience. Together, we focus on healing, strengthening coping skills, and creating meaningful, lasting change.

You may feel overwhelmed by the idea of starting therapy, unsure where to begin, or worried about facing difficult emotions. Self-doubt, anxiety, and life transitions can make it hard to focus on your own needs. You might feel stuck, disconnected, burnt out, or caught in people-pleasing patterns—knowing something isn’t working but unsure how to change. You may notice racing thoughts, difficulty setting boundaries, emotional ups and downs, or feeling on edge in relationships, leaving you exhausted and uncertain about what you need.

The neurocomplexity of ADHD and autism can make everyday interactions, let alone therapy, draining and frustrating. Working to decode others' expectations whilst striving to be accurately seen and known can be so isolating. My own lived experience of AuDHD+ allows me to offer therapy deeply rooted in understanding and guided by an anti-oppression lens that acknowledges systemic impacts on personal well-being.

Whether you're feeling stuck, wanting to improve your mental health, or looking to process a difficult experience, I will provide a safe space for you to explore your lived experiences and current challenges. The process of talk therapy can be both difficult and rewarding and I firmly believe that all people can benefit from therapy. Therapy can help you gain a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours, help you to feel more prepared to handle life's challenges, and bring about a greater sense of fulfilment.

Are you sick and tired of feeling sick and tired? Tired of the hiding and secrecy that surround your drinking. Even if you present well and have been able to manage your professional career, does self doubt or strong emotions have you turning to alcohol for a feeling of relief that is only short lived and leaves you worse off than before? Alcohol has become ubiquitous as a stress reliever in society but often leaves even worse scars and brings risk of unhealthy or unsafe behaviours, relationship ruptures and general suffering.

Feeling anxious, hypervigilant, mistrustful, overwhelmed, or panicky? Do your thoughts race as you struggle to concentrate? Are you turning to substances in order to cope? Maybe you feel empty, flat, numb, exhausted, and disinterested in previously enjoyed activities. Or, most confusingly, do you bounce between these experiences in some combination while wondering “What is wrong with me”? Whether experiencing one or more, these survival strategies are the lingering legacy of a wound(s) sustained during a recent unexpected situation, a long-standing issue, or a traumatic experience that is calling for your attention.

I am NOT currently accepting new clients. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, anxious, burnt out, or emotionally exhausted, you’re not alone. Seeking therapy can be a meaningful step toward caring for your mental health. I believe our stories of grief, pain, love, and resilience shape how we experience life, and therapy can help loosen the hold of stories that no longer serve us and move toward what matters most. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, grief, insomnia, life transitions, and caregiver stress.

Do you feel overwhelmed by the expectations and demands of life and find yourself struggling to keep up?
Do you try endlessly to achieve your potential and feel happy, or at least satisfied, but nothing seems to be working?
Have you tried everything you can think of but still can't seem to find peace of mind or even the capacity to relax?

Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, especially when shame, stigma, or past negative experiences get in the way. Addiction and mental health challenges are often intertwined and complex, and you deserve a space where you feel understood rather than judged. I’m Shannon Horrigan, a Registered Psychotherapist and Social Services Worker with nearly 30 years of experience supporting individuals and families in navigating these challenges and moving toward meaningful change.
