As summer begins and school routines change, many children and adolescents experience shifts in structure, social connections, and daily expectations. I enjoy helping children, teens, and families navigate these transitions while building skills to manage emotions, relationships, anxiety, behavior challenges, and life changes. I also work with young adults as they move from college into the adult world, supporting them through career decisions, increased responsibilities, independence, workplace adjustment, stress management, and identity development. Whether facing a seasonal transition, a major life change, or everyday challenges.

Hi, I’m Shawniel Chamanlal, Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who have spent much of their lives being the strong ones, responsible, capable, and often carrying more than their share. You may be someone others rely on, who shows up and gets things done, yet rarely has the space to slow down, rest, or be fully supported. Over time, this way of living can take a toll. Stress, self-doubt, emotional exhaustion, difficulty setting boundaries, or a lingering sense of not feeling “enough” often stem from earlier experiences in which you learned to adapt, push through, or put others before yourself.

You may be the one others rely on, "the strong one" who shows up for everyone else, but carrying everything alone can become exhausting. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions who are ready to better understand their experiences and develop healthier ways to cope and move forward.
