Teletherapy for 22932

I enjoy providing comprehensive assessment services designed to discover strengths, clarify the problem, identify supports and strategies, and connect people with resources. Psychological and multi-disciplinary testing is available for concerns about attention, behavior, relationships, social skills, mood, problem solving, cognitive functioning, learning, executive functioning, memory, independent living skills, and mental health. Reports and recommendations can be tailored for medical diagnosis, mental health intervention, educational planning, and/ or vocational planning. Testing services are offered for all ages.

I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are experiencing difficulties such as anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, behavioral problems, and social concerns. I use a cognitive-behavioral treatment approach, with family and school consultation as important components of the treatment. Consultation with physicians, psychiatrists, and other treatment providers is also welcomed. I believe in using a collaborative problem-solving approach in which we work as a team to develop an intervention plan.

< < Shannon is accepting new clients > > My goal as your therapist is to create a safe space for you to process and organize your life experiences, thoughts, relationships, and emotions. I’m ready to meet you wherever you are in your process with nonjudgmental grace and support. Together, we’ll notice your strengths and build on them so you can continue moving forward with a greater understanding of this version of yourself.

Some gentle reminders: It's not too late for you + Having feelings means you are human + Not everyone will understand you + You deserve to heal from the things that weren't your fault + You don't have to abandon yourself to be loved + Your sensitivity is a strength, not a flaw + You can (learn to) trust yourself (again). My therapy style is intuitive, imaginative, soulful, and authentic. I practice under the supervision of Lila Heymann, LCSW.
