About
Greetings! For starters, I’d like to commend you for finding my webpage; this means you are questioning if therapy is right for you, which is the first step in working towards emotional freedom. My name is Shanya Pickard, AMFT and I utilize the pronouns she/her/hers. I have extensive experience and am very passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community and at-risk youth, as well as couples and survivors of abuse. In addition to individual therapy, I have experience working with couples and families, as well as facilitating Group Therapy including Anxiety and Depression,
Couples Workshops, and Teen Support Groups. I have experience working with client's ranging from 6-70 years old and have provided therapy to individuals struggling with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, addiction, codependency, anxiety, depression, OCD, gender dysphoria, body dysmorphia, relational trauma, infidelity, and communication barriers, etc.
As a therapist, I feel responsible to provide not only a safe space for my clients, but to also set limits and push boundaries (even if it's uncomfortable) because that is when real change occurs. I am here to guide you to discover your higher power and purpose, while helping create useful interventions. Change is Inevitable. Growth is Optional. ~ J. Maxwell
