Welcome! I am Shana L Wapstra Scott, LMFT.
You may be a thoughtful and capable adult or a differentiating teen, yet still find yourself repeating painful patterns in relationships, conflict, or self-criticism. Perhaps you feel anxious, emotionally reactive, withdrawn, or unsure how to trust your own judgment. You may be navigating a complex partnership, parent-teen relationship, or recovering from relational injury, or seeking greater steadiness during a demanding season of life.
At Depth & Discernment Psychotherapy, I work with adults and adolescents who want more than symptom relief — they want clarity.
Together we examine over-functioning, self-doubt, boundary erosion, and the subtle ways the self can become organized around how you relate to others.
Discernment is the capacity to differentiate — to know what is yours and what is not, to respond rather than react, and to tolerate complexity without collapse.
If you or your teen seems stuck, uncertain, or weary of repeating patterns, I invite you or your teen to explore this work with me. Therapy is a collaborative process grounded in steadiness, honesty, and respect.
Together we can clarify what feels confusing, strengthen your emotional footing, and create a thoughtful path forward.
