I am best at helping people find their purpose, build themselves up from rock bottom, and to help people move from being stuck surviving into someone that is thriving in life's journey. Life circumstances and mental wellness varies when someone walks into my office, but I have witnessed people completely transform. One evidence based and effective approach I use is EMDR in both individual and group settings to move past trauma when feeling stuck in the healing process. When you need emotional healing, I am able to provide direction, understanding, and jump start a person's ability to take on the next life challenge.

As a licensed mental health practitioner in private practice, I meet each client and situation with openness and authenticity. My office provides a safe and welcoming space for vulnerability, healing, and personal growth. I utilize a client-centered approach combined with effective psychotherapy interventions to help clients reach their desired level of fulfillment and functioning. Combining a variety of therapeutic interventions with my holistic integrative training offers clients a personalized treatment approach to promote healing and optimal holistic health.

My goal as a therapist is to create a comfortable and safe space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. My practice focuses on meeting you where you are at with validation, empathy, and nonjudgement. Wellness involves every aspect of our lives, so it’s important to take a holistic approach and build a strong foundation to move you towards a satisfying life. I believe in the power of positive thinking, identifying and validating our emotions while also acknowledging the impact that trauma, pain, and stress can have on an individual. I value your uniqueness and understand that each client has unique needs in a therapeutic space.

Stuck? Alone? Why do I do the things I don't want to do, and don't do the things I want to do? Struggling to trust or feel worthy of love? Failed attempts to connect on repeat and overwhelming you?

I am here to help you better connect with others, and even with your own sense of self, even your spirituality if you desire. Find your authentic self and discover you can love that person, and, you are worth being loved. I am here. Lets journey together.

Hi there! I'm Shyan, founder of Serenity Counseling. We believe the key to understanding and coping with mental health conditions lies at the source of the whole self. Along with an easy going therapeutic environment, we emphasize a whole health approach that encompasses important aspects of healing such as your physical, emotional and for some, spiritual health. Treatment might include mindfulness practices, distress tolerance, environmental adaptations and other evidenced-based treatment options that will improve your ability to process and manage difficult experiences, and increase your capacity to cope in more healthy ways.

I consider it a privilege to be able to come along side an individual or couple in their journey towards healing. As a therapist, I value creating and holding a nonjudgemental, confidential and safe space to allow for healing and growth. There are many reasons someone might seek therapy. Therapy can help navigate life transitions, treat mental health concerns, address trauma and be a place of support. I believe that expanding self awareness through personal reflection can increase self agency, confidence and relational satisfaction.

With a genuine passion for supporting individuals, couples, and families in their pursuit of mental and emotional well-being, I bring a wealth of experience and a warm, non-judgmental approach to my counseling. I firmly believe that each person is unique, and I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet your specific needs, fostering a trusting and collaborative relationship. Whether you're navigating life transitions, facing challenges in relationships, coping with anxiety, managing stress, or seeking personal development, my goal is to create a safe and empowering space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly.

I have always viewed my work as a therapist as an honor and privilege to walk alongside individuals, couples and families to address some of their most sensitive and intimate struggles they've experienced in life. I work with clients ranging in age from high school into late adulthood. I have extensive experience working with marital and relationship problems, infidelity, divorce issues, those who might struggle with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, family of origin issues and trauma of abuse. I also have a special heart for those who have endured medical illness. Working as a therapist is my passion.

My ideal client is someone who seeks support across the developmental spectrum, from children to adolescents and adults. They may grapple with issues ranging from anxiety, self-esteem, and interpersonal challenges. Their needs encompass a safe and non-judgmental space to explore their emotions and develop coping strategies. Their ultimate goal is to attain improved mental well-being, harness their inner strengths, and cultivate the skills needed to navigate life's complexities with confidence and resilience. Their desire for growth and transformation stems from a genuine aspiration to lead a fulfilling and empowered life.

My intention is to work collaboratively with you to affirm your strengths, identify your challenges, and find ways to support your growth into the unique human being you are created to be. My areas of specialty training are related to developing greater integrity between who we are and how we live our daily lives. One specialty area is the assessment and care of persons who experience gender dysphoria and incongruence. My other specialty is assessing, treating, and accommodating high functioning Autism, especially in girls and women because, due to estrogen, the symptoms appear very differently than in boys & men.

Making the decision to come to therapy can be scary. I offer a safe place to for you to express what is happening for you as you are listened to. Life changes, illness, transitions and knowing your needs are not being met cause a variety of emotional turmoil. I can help with direction and finding what will enhance your life by identifying how to move forward once again. Through talk therapy and setting goals we will be able to identify how you can live in peace and happiness. Call to schedule to begin a healing journey for your future. Come to strengthen, change and RENEW, you.

Everyone in life experiences stress, grief, loss and pain in various ways and I am honored to work alongside individuals to help navigate the storms of life. While pain and stress are inevitable, it is my goal to help discover ways of coping and mitigating the pain and struggle to help people find and live out their purpose happily and healthily. My close family and friends would say that I have been counseling my whole life; beginning with being elected the peer helper of my 4th grade class. I continued to follow that calling throughout my path and became a licensed social worker/therapist.

We all go through challenges in life and shouldn’t have to face hard times alone. My passion is to come alongside and help you navigate these challenges. As a therapist pursing my certification as a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, I specialize in working with teens and their families, and adults who struggle with symptoms from eating disorders, such as anorexia-nervosa, bulimia, binge eating disorder, over exercising, body dysmorphia, and disordered eating. I also work with adults and teens who have symptoms of anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, and day to day life stressors.

There is grace and understanding for those who are suffering and trying to better themselves. We are all human and we all will experience a level of suffering. I will meet you where you are at in your journey of life and we will work through it together.
