Shelby Ammann

I hold a Master of Science degree with a concentration in counseling, and my professional background is centered on trauma‐informed, nervous‐system‐focused care. I work with teens and adults navigating complex trauma, anxiety, sleep concerns, and depression—often when symptoms feel persistent despite effort or prior therapy. My approach integrates evidence‐based, mind and body‐focused methods tailored to each individual, with an emphasis on nervous system regulation and meaningful, lasting change. I value therapy that is collaborative, attuned, and paced with care, and I aim to offer a space where clients can feel understood and supported as they work toward greater balance and well‐being.

My approach to therapy is trauma‐informed, collaborative, and paced with care. I focus on how experiences such as complex trauma, anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties affect both the mind , body, and nervous system. Treatment is tailored to each client’s needs and emphasizes regulation and understanding underlying patterns rather than symptom management alone. My goal is to support meaningful, sustainable change that helps clients feel more regulated, grounded, and less stressed in their daily lives.

The first session is focused on getting to know you and understanding what brings you to therapy. We’ll talk about your current concerns, goals, and any important background information at a pace that feels comfortable and respectful. My priority is to create a sense of safety, answer any questions you may have, and begin forming a plan that aligns with your needs and treatment.
