My expertise lies in guiding you through some of your most difficult life transitions and in helping you to reach and to honor your fullest potential.

As your therapist, I am committed to creating an inclusive space where you are welcome exactly as you are. I do this with compassion and empathy by listening deeply to what is most important to you. Through therapy, I am dedicated to providing a space where you are met with warmth, authenticity, and acceptance. We all deserve to feel truly seen and heard. Whether you are a couple who has recently faced betrayal or are feeling stuck in the relationship, a teenager experiencing anxiety, or an adult navigating a major life transition, I am here to support you through it.

Just when you think you are getting used to one phase of life, the next one throws you a curve ball. Whether your life includes being single, adjusting to marriage or parenthood, raising a teen, children leaving the home, or adjusting to retirement, each phase brings plenty of unique challenges. Issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, and life dissatisfaction can seem like constant companions through it all. It can feel exhausting! Life should not be about working so hard yet feeling so flat!

I have worked with children, families, individuals and couples in many different capacities before finding my calling as a therapist.

I also work with adolescents who are struggling in school or with behavior problems, defiance, and depression and anxiety. **Some evening, as well as Facetime (great for teens), Zoom or phone appts available.

I am a firm believer in the mind, body, spirit connection, and as a result take a very holistic approach with my clients. This model emphasizes cultivating a warm and supportive environment, which creates the conditions necessary to facilitate the natural tendency of human beings to move toward wellness. It recognizes that the path to healing, joy and contentment, is an inward journey, which seeks to allow clients to shift from a sense that they are helpless and at the mercy of their circumstances, to a position of empowerment. This process leads clients on a path toward realizing their full potential.

I’m Shanna Rayyan, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and therapist. I am currently accepting new clients in my online private practice for face to face tele-therapy sessions.

You're in a state of overwhelm and life feels really unmanageable. You've tried therapy before, but it didn't go deeply enough into the struggles you've faced. You long to be seen and understood, but also want concrete skills so you can get through the day. You don’t want to turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms, but you’re running out of answers. You’re left to pick up the pieces and you’re not sure if you can do it again.

My speciality is working with women and non-binary people who have experienced trauma. I use a range of modalities, including EMDR, Expressive Arts Therapy, and Trauma-Informed Talk Therapy, to help my patients see real change. My approach is engaged, relational, and embodied.

Therapy is a process of inner healing and deep commitment to cultivating growth within yourself. In what ways do you need to be supported in order to grow into something more authentically you? I hold the following words as intentions and as anchors for grounding each therapy session for all my clients. Healing. Freedom. Love. Life can be beautiful again when you are brave enough to do the work within. I work with all ages including children, youth and adults.

I specialize in working with ADHD, HSP, and ASD. Being in our bodies- and being in our world- can be very difficult. This is especially true when when you're a highly sensitive person. My typical client often hears "you're being too much" while also dreading the feeling of not "being enough". I'm here to take a deep dive into what's making you feel like "too much" and highlight the ways you are "just enough for the right people". Typically, my client's goals are to live more comfortably in their sensitive skin, find liberation from shame, and better manage depression and anxiety.

I have a virtual private practice in California where I work with teens, and adults. I consider therapy a relationship we co-create specifically to suit your needs; one to help you feel safe, heard, and respected. I have a relational style, meaning you will receive feedback from me, and never feel like you're talking to a blank wall. We all share an intrinsic longing for hope, wholeness, empowerment, and meaning. It's my privilege to help clients nourish that longing into a drive; to help them gain a sense of mastery and direction in their own lives.

So many of us have been harmed by other people, by systems of oppression, and by experiences of collective trauma. These experiences disconnect us from ourselves and from each other, so that we may blame and attack ourselves, or lash out at those around us, or feel compelled to be perfect at the cost of our wellbeing, or numb our feelings, or feel always insecure and unsafe in relationships. People who work with me are curious, wanting to know more about how past experiences are showing up in their feelings, bodies, sense of self, behaviors, values, and relationships today.

I am an associate Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in sex therapy, harm reduction, trauma-informed care, PTSD, and LGBTQIA+ issues.

I love to help people navigate through their relationships, both casual and serious, and offer support and care in making tough changes or realizations. Together we can explore shame, identity, and what scares or challenges us.

If you would like to get to the root of your challenges in life and make lasting change, I'm here to help. You may have particular issues you want to work on. Or you may be discouraged, depressed, or constantly anxious. You may feel trapped by obligations and everyday pressures. Or you might just have a sense that you're not living your best, fullest life. I am here to affirm that your life can be better.

My framework as a psychotherapist is inspired by black feminist sci-fi writer, Octavia E. Butler who saw the possibility of many more worlds than just our own. I believe that transformative internal healing is critical to envisioning and building these worlds without the presence of imperialism, white supremacy, capitalism and cishet-patriarchy. The tools I use to support the exploration of individual, interpersonal and intergenerational trauma are shaped by abolition that rejects punitive and scarcity mindsets and disability justice which strives to value every body.
