Hello, I'm Shannon! I’d love for you to take a moment to learn more about who I help, how I help, and what it might look like for us to work together.
Working with teens:
Being a teen is hard, but it doesn’t have to feel impossible. Between school stress, friendships, anxiety, emotions that may feel bigger than expected, and the pressure to have everything figured out, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or stuck.
Therapy doesn’t have to be awkward or boring. In our sessions, we focus on building real-life skills that actually make sense for teens. We work on coping strategies, emotional regulation, managing anxiety, positive self-talk, and understanding what’s going on beneath the surface. We don’t just talk, we problem-solve. I help teens figure out practical ways to handle school, friendships, and everyday stress; all in a space that feels supportive, relaxed, and judgment-free. The goal isn’t to change who you are, but to help you feel more confident, more in control, and more like yourself!
Working with Neurodiverse Teens & Adults:
Life can already feel like a heavy lift, but when you’re navigating a world that wasn’t necessarily built for your unique brain or way of moving through life, it can feel overwhelming. You might feel like you’re constantly being “worked on” rather than truly understood. Maybe school or work feels like a battleground of sensory overload, or social cues feel like a language you weren’t given the manual for.
For parents, I see the exhaustion that comes with fierce advocacy,
the weight of wanting your child to be happy and supported while worrying about the future. In our work together, you don’t have to perform or “mask” to fit in. Whether we are navigating identity, school or work stress, or emotional regulation, I provide a space where your neurodivergence or developmental journey is respected, not “fixed.” We’ll focus on real tools that help you feel more in control and more like yourself, all while honoring exactly who you are.
