In my role as a therapist, I have developed a specialized focus on working with couples by integrating Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) with a trauma-informed approach to facilitate deep healing and connection. I understand that within a relationship, both partners can carry their own emotional wounds and traumas, which can significantly influence their interactions and dynamics.
Emotionally Focused Therapy, with its structured and evidence-based framework, allows us to delve into the underlying emotions that fuel conflicts and disconnections between partners. By addressing the core emotions and attachment needs of each individual, I guide couples in building stronger, more secure bonds and fostering healthier communication patterns. Additionally, I weave a trauma-informed lens into our work, recognizing how past traumas can resurface within the relationship. This approach helps us navigate triggers and sensitivities with empathy, understanding, and a focus on creating a safe space for healing.
My objective is not only to resolve immediate conflicts but also to support couples in healing from the emotional wounds that may have been contributing to their distress. By combining EFT with a trauma-informed perspective, I empower couples to rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and embark on a transformative journey toward lasting emotional well-being and relational satisfaction. Through this integrative approach, couples can not only resolve their current issues but also develop the tools to thrive in their relationship long into the future.

In my professional practice as a psychologist, I specialize in conducting comprehensive psychological assessments. These assessments are invaluable tools for gaining a deeper understanding of an individual's psychological functioning, strengths, challenges, and specific needs. My approach is rooted in both the art and science of psychology, blending standardized assessment tools with a compassionate and individualized approach.
Psychological assessments can cover a wide range of areas, including cognitive functioning, emotional well-being, personality traits, and more. I work closely with clients to determine the specific goals and questions that need to be addressed through the assessment process. Whether it's evaluating a child's learning difficulties, assessing an individual's emotional state, or helping with diagnostic clarification, I tailor each assessment to the unique circumstances of the individual.
Throughout the assessment process, I provide a supportive and empathetic environment, recognizing that it can be a sensitive and sometimes challenging experience. I believe in open communication and collaboration, involving clients in the assessment process and ensuring that they feel heard and respected throughout.
Ultimately, my specialization in psychological assessments aims to provide individuals, families, and professionals with valuable insights that can guide treatment, educational planning, and personal growth. By conducting assessments with care and precision, I contribute to a clearer path towards understanding and addressing psychological needs, fostering positive change, and enhancing overall well-being.

Shannon has such an easy way of relating. I tell her about something and she helps me put it into perspective and makes it feel manageable. I feel in control of my life.

I appreciate the way Shannon both dumbs down what she is talking about so I understand it without talking down to me.

Shannon really gets my son. She has an easy going and fun-loving demeanor.
