Shan Reeves

My name is Shan Reeves; I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that has been has been supporting clients for the past 2 decades. I am trained in EMDR and use trauma informed therapeutic techniques. Because the impacts on our lives look different I use a variety of evidenced based practice techniques to support my clients. Based off of clients comfortability I will use a present to past and past to present method to help create resolve for current situations as well as those from the past.

I believe that as the experts of ourselves we must learn to trust who we are in our authentic being. As we go through this journey of life, the more we learn to trust ourselves and clearly communicate our thoughts the easier it becomes to navigate life's stressors. While engaging in therapy I support clients with finding their authentic voice and connecting with the whole self as a way not to minimize ones truth. Then clients are supported with strategies to advocate for their needs.

My intent is to leave clients with thought provoking realizations of self that they can journal about for further exploration. I will support clients with their concerns while reflecting back alternative perspectives based off of what they have offered. We will make connection to past and present experiences in an effort to make sense of their life experience. Clients will receive a variety of techniques to self sooth and create space to navigate their emotional stimulation or thoughts.
