Introduction

Hi, I'm Shannon! I specialize in working with high-functioning adults who look like they’re doing well on the outside but feel stuck in their relationships, disconnected from themselves, or are navigating complex identity dynamics. Many of my clients are insightful and capable, but can’t seem to shift the patterns that keep showing up. My approach is relational and insight-oriented, with attention to the patterns people develop in relationships in order to stay connected, safe, or understood. While I don’t focus on trauma processing in a direct way, I do work from a trauma-informed lens that recognizes how early and ongoing relational experiences shape how we relate to ourselves and others. In addition to individual therapy, I also work with organizations to address burnout, communication challenges, and relational dynamics within teams. Contact me today for a complimentary consultation session and together we will move Beyond Limits!
