Hello, thanks for stopping by. I’m here to offer a calm, compassionate space where you can finally start to feel understood. I know life can be complicated, especially when you're navigating Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, or Autism. My goal is to help you (or your child, age 5+) manage these challenges and discover a path toward feeling more at ease and confident.

What Makes Working With Me Different? My journey to becoming a counselor didn't start in an office; it started the day I was born. Growing up as one of eleven children, I was fortunate to have many siblings with special needs—including siblings with Autism, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety and Learning Disabilities. This taught me something invaluable: true, deep patience, kindness, and compassion.

For over 20 years, I honed this understanding as both a High School Counselor and Special Education teacher.

Since I offer teletherapy only, you can start your journey to feeling better from the comfort of your own home. Our first session together is simple: it’s all about getting to know each other. We’ll talk about what brought you here, your goals, and what a "good day" looks like for you. It’s a low-pressure conversation where you can feel safe and heard.

Ready to Connect?

I truly care about helping you feel your best, and I’ve got the patience and experience to see you through it. If you’re ready to start finding that inner calm, I encourage you to reach out.

Shanna McMullen

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Louisiana


My name is Shanna McMullen, and I am a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Master of Science in Nursing from Northwestern State University of Louisiana. I work with adults and seniors, and I bring a broad, inclusive, and genuinely creative approach to mental health care.

My clinical areas span anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, OCD, ADD/ADHD, panic disorders, chronic conditions, sleep disorders, stress, relationships, and family concerns. I offer dedicated support for maternal mental health — including prenatal and postpartum experiences — and I am deeply committed to affirming, knowledgeable care for LGBTQ+ individuals, including those navigating gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender experiences, as well as men's and women's mental health needs.

One thing that sets my practice apart: I incorporate Art Therapy as one of my therapeutic approaches — using creative expression as a powerful pathway to insight, healing, and self-discovery for clients who connect with that kind of work.

Whatever brings you here, you will be met with openness, care, and the full breadth of what I have to offer.
