I provide effective interventions for helping people use their thoughts and emotions to redress difficulties they are experiencing in life. This can include a wide range of challenges such as work difficulties, loss, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, life-crisis and more. I find psychodynamic approaches best for making permanent changes to thought patterns that are established in the context of our unique personality and experiences in life. My practice is for those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and others. With this understanding greater possibilities for mastering life challenges is made possible.

I understand the feeling of overwhelm that some may have towards therapy, this understanding enables me to be genuine and intentional within our work. Trauma, relational pressures, stress, etc. can impede our ability to live in the present; working through challenging emotions and experiences provides us with the ability to practice discernment. I believe in the philosophy that we are innately pulled towards health, therefore I believe in your capacity to move towards a healthier and happier version of yourself.

You may be here because what feels heavy isn't only anxiety or low mood, but the experience of trying to live according to your values in a world where injustice, accelerating change, and uncertainty shape everyday life. These realities can influence how we think, feel, relate to others, and care for ourselves. It can be difficult to untangle what belongs to the wider world from what is happening within you, or to know what deserves your attention first.

John O'Donohue wrote: "Our bodies know they belong; it is our minds that make our lives so homeless." You may resonate with this statement. You may feel tension, sadness, disconnection, discouragement, or fear. Our minds tend to pull us into the past or make us feel anxious about our future. Stress and overwhelm can flood our senses or distract us from the cues our bodies are trying to tell us. Big emotions can interfere with the person we are trying to become and can impact the relationships we are trying to cultivate.

Loneliness, Social Skills, Social Anxiety -Shannon
Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)

Maybe you can be in a room full of people and still feel completely alone. You want connection, but social situations feel exhausting or frightening, so you hold back, replay what you said for hours, and wonder why making friends seems so much easier for everyone else. Loneliness can creep in after a move, a loss, a season of putting everyone else first, or years of quietly keeping people at arm's length to stay safe. It doesn't mean something is wrong with you. Connection is both a need and a skill, and both can be rebuilt.

Have you ever felt like you needed to do “more” or be “more” in order to feel like you are “enough?” Overwhelmed by guilt if you have needs of your own? Or believe if you did acknowledge YOU in relationships it could end in abandonment, disappointment or being alone? You may have learned to relate to yourself in this way for as long as you can remember and does not mean you are “broken” in need of being “fixed”. When we remove judgment and begin to see our “true self” through the lens of curiosity we get to reconnect with who we have always wanted to be but was too afraid to try.
