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.
I specialize in helping individuals navigate complex trauma/CPTSD, social anxiety, relationship dynamics, and workplace stress. I work with both teens and adults to address anxiety, depression, perfectionism, work-life balance, and healing from childhood trauma or complex family dynamics. Therapy can help with overcoming fears in social situations, boosting motivation, reducing excessive guilt, and managing stress related to academics or work as well as address issues such as fears of abandonment, putting others' needs before their own, setting healthy boundaries, achieving personal goals, and processing past trauma.
Our practice has openings for in person and virtual appointments. We believe therapy can help alleviate distress in times of crisis, but is also important as a regular part of wellness. We accept several insurance plans via Headway as well as offer low cost self-pay options.
