Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Shawna, I am a licensed clinical social worker who specializes in trauma and anxiety. I believe that finding the right therapist is vital for the therapeutic process to succeed, here is a bit more information about me:

I have been practicing within the social work field for over 10 years within various local agencies. In addition to my practice, I also work in primary care as a clinical supervisor and an integrated behavioral health specialist.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in working with people who are experiencing life transitions, anxiety, stress, grief, and trauma. Previous clients have described my approach as warm, attentive, clear, and relational. I utilize a psychodynamic and trauma informed approach. I am also EMDR trained. Ultimately, I view therapy as a unique journey for every person.

What you can expect from me

You can expect me to create a non judgmental space for exploring, supporting, and healing. I create an environment to explore life's distress and its impact while also sharing effective, personalized tools.
