Hi there, I'm Shanna! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I see therapy as a partnership: you bring your goals, insights, and courage, and I bring my expertise, compassion, and commitment to supporting you every step of the way. Wherever you are in life’s journey—adolescence to older adulthood—I’m here to offer expert care, unwavering support, and a path to healing rooted in respect for who you are. Together, we’ll identify what matters most to you and develop strategies that help you move toward the life you want—whether that’s easing anxiety, improving relationships, processing trauma, or finding more balance and peace.
I draw from evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness, while also taking a strengths-based and culturally sensitive perspective. Together, we’ll identify what matters most to you and develop strategies that help you move toward the life you want—whether that’s easing anxiety, improving relationships, processing trauma.
My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story and strengths. I believe healing happens in a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel truly heard and understood.
