My website
Hi, I'm Shannon. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety-related disorders including OCD, panic disorder, and agoraphobia as well as somatic symptoms, chronic illness, relationship concerns, and complex trauma. I especially enjoy working with high-achieving and deep-feeling individuals who grapple with chronic stress, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and burnout. I understand first-hand how these patterns often develop as ways to manage pressure or maintain control, yet over time, can lead to emotional exhaustion, self-doubt, and disconnection from one’s needs.
I lead sessions with warmth and curiosity to explore how early experiences shape core beliefs, coping strategies, and relationships. Drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, and evidence-based approaches such as ERP, I support clients in cultivating greater clarity, self-acceptance, and a life more fully aligned with their values.
Whether you're seeking support with life transitions, emotional regulation, or self-discovery, I'm here to walk alongside you on your journey. Reach out via email or phone to get a free 15-minute phone consultation or to schedule your first appointment.
