Your heart feels crushed 10 times over? You're so angry you could (or do) scream? You work hard only to find yourself in this frustrating place. If you have childhood wounds and hoped by now you'd be happier, I get you. Maybe you've tried spirituality, but it wasn't enough. Maybe nature helps, but you still have anxiety or existential woe. I help you heal and thrive through compassionate communication, inner parts work, guided imagery, and embodied, scientifically researched practices (regulated breathing, EFT tapping, and more). See my Google reviews. If inner peace, joy and real love is worth your investment, let's get there.
We can look at patterns that started after your first wounds, to transform mental blocks, anxiety, and trauma triggers. We'll release stress and stories stored in your body and write the next chapters of your life. These chapters can be different, about integrating the painful experiences and moving forward with new insight, hope, strength, & contentment.
You can wake up more rested, with energy and clarity to do what's best for you (it serves the world better when you are grounded and healthy). You can navigate work and relationships with more joy and ease. Discover the steps to take each day to keep from falling into despair. You will feel better about who you are! Call me today and let's begin.

Many of my clients are already self-aware, and still struggle with anxiety, anger, despair over relationships, or feeling lost or lack of purpose. Most of my clients find more hope, clarity, energy to really love life and make a difference in the worlds of social justice, parenting, or healing others.

It's said that one can't take another deeper than they've gone themselves. Shannon has explored the depths of heart and soul like none other I know. Her expansive presence, amplified by the natural and spiritual world she works with, can hold it all.

I focus on your inner experience, and how present-day thoughts, emotions, and body sensations can weave together with past memories to create an evolving story about who we are and who we can come to be. If you are open to exploring your perceptions of experience through visualizations and other self-inquiries, you'll love my work.
