Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome—I'm so glad you're here.

My name is Shanna Gardner, LPC-S, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I'm deeply passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and discover a sense of peace, purpose, and emotional wellness.

I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel safe, heard, and truly understood. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming stress, navigating a tough life transition, or managing symptoms of anxiety or depression, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My approach to therapy

My Areas of Expertise

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with a wide range of individuals facing concerns such as:

  • Depression
  • Anxiety
  • Life transitions
  • Stress management
  • Self-esteem and personal growth

I use an integrative, client-centered approach, drawing from evidence-based practices like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and solution-focused techniques, tailored to your unique needs and goals.

What you can expect from me

Clients often describe my style as warm, approachable, and collaborative. I create a nonjudgmental space where we can work together to explore challenges, uncover strengths, and build tools that empower you to live a more balanced, fulfilling life.

No matter where you are on your journey, you're not alone—and I'm here to walk beside you.
