My expertise includes acute and life-threatening health conditions, death and dying, grief, trauma, postpartum mental health, stress, depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationships, life transitions, sexuality and sexual identity.
I am Shawna - a passionate and innovative therapist who believes strong mental health is rooted in resilience and connection. Having worked exclusively with young cancer patients and their families over the past decade helped me realize that emotional pain and resilience are not mutually exclusive experiences - they live together. Through the process of recognizing and experiencing our deepest pain, fear and longing we can become better versions of ourselves. My style is empathic, intuitive, and interactive, and I uncover and guide my clients to use their untapped strengths, resilience, and potential for connection in their lives.

I am currently training as a sex therapist for individuals.

I am skilled in working with clients across a broad range of concerns, including overall mental health, life transition, grief/loss, complex and family trauma, gender and sexuality, and attachment related struggles.
Welcome! I am a queer and gender expansive therapist, offering individual online therapy across most Canadian jurisdictions. I offer a contextualizing, self-compassionate, and strengths based approach. While life's hardships will never disappear, I can help you come to more peace and aliveness within yourself. I offer a warm, non-judgmental space to be seen, heard, and grow within. Therapy is kind of like detangling a big ball of yarn; it can be both hard yet relieving (you're not broken, just tangled!), and ultimately allows room for more consciousness/choice to flow in: now that your threads are free, what would you like to weave?

I am experienced in working with and supporting individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, family dynamics, spouse/partner relations, as well as experiencing sexuality and love outside of a cishet, monogamist-normative lifestyle.

My approach is to work within the lived experience of the client, regularly checking in with the process of the body, ensuring that both therapist and client can truly feel through the experience

Maybe you’ve been caught in toxic dynamics, shut down emotionally, or coped by engaging in sexual behaviours that don’t feel aligned with who you are — things like using sex to avoid pain, seeking validation through hookups, or feeling stuck in patterns that leave you feeling empty or disconnected.
If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone — and you don’t have to figure it out solo. In therapy, we’ll work together to untangle those patterns, calm the emotional storms, and rebuild a stronger, more grounded connection with yourself (and others). Think: real talk, practical tools, and space to just be without pressure.

I specialize in body- oriented therapy for folks struggling with perfectionism, inner criticism, anxiety, sex, burnout, trauma, and transitions (career, school, relationships).
