Great to meet you!

Hi there! My name is Shannon and I am a licensed clinical social worker. I am lucky to have found my true passion in this line of work so early, that being ADHD clinical services. While ADHD is my specialty, I thoroughly enjoy helping people navigate a wide array of situations including life stressors, mood and depressive disorders, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders.

My approach to therapy

As a mental health provider, I believe that you are the expert on your own life. I approach the therapeutic process with curiosity, empathy, compassion, and an eagerness to learn your story. Mental and emotional well-being is a life-long journey and I take great honor in being a part of yours.

What you can expect from me

Because a first therapy session can feel anxiety-provoking, I aim to meet you where you're at. It is so important to me as a therapist that you feel comfortable and emotionally safe in our therapy appointments. We build this sense of trust through talking about your goals for therapy, your past experiences in mental health treatment, and any concerns you may have in starting this process.
