About Shannon

I believe that every individual has the potential to flourish, even in the face of life’s challenges. My practice specializes in providing trauma-informed, compassionate mental health care. I recognize that mental health is an essential component of overall well-being. I take a client-centered approach, tailoring interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual. I create a safe, nurturing environment where clients can explore their feelings, process their experiences, and find a sense of calm and courage.

Counselling can help you to find your hope, freedom, and empowerment to be part of the change our world needs. Counselling supports you to reconnect to your self, family, community, and planet in ways that are healing rather than harmful so that together we can be part of the solution.

I work collaboratively with you to find the change you need to better our world in small and big ways. I support a variety of mental health and life challenges including:
* anxiety and depression
* stress & burnout
* trauma
* grief and loss
* life transitions
* relationships and family
* couples and parenting
* neurodiversity
* shame, perfectionism, and self-compassion
* reproductive mental health, including pre/postpartum, infertility, pregnancy loss, and perimenopause

My work is anti-oppressive, liberatory, non-pathologizing, and strength-based. I am primarily guided by Internal Family Systems (IFS), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic therapy, and mindfulness-based therapy using an intersectional feminist, social constructionist, and trauma-informed lens.

You may be feeling hesitant, embarrassed, or reluctant to reach out to a new counsellor. That first step can be the hardest and I applaud your courage for being here now. Please reach out to me for a free 15-minute consultation so that we can get to know each other and decide if we might be a good fit for each other.
