Rebecca Shaughnessy, LPC
About me
I am so glad you made it to my page today as you are deciding who to choose for your therapist. I would like to share with you a little about me and my approach. I have a passion for helping those in need find their inner strength and resilience. We all have it within us to find solutions to our problems; sometimes we just need some guidance. Are you at the point where saying "I just need to try harder" or "I used to be able to" is just not working? I offer an integrative, client-centered approach to counseling. Our work together will be collaborative in nature. Just one small step is all it takes to begin the process of change. If you are struggling, reach out to me and we will begin the process together. Building a strong therapeutic relationship may be the bridge between who you are now and who your are yet to become. I work with a variety of issues including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, trauma, mood disorders, OCD, panic disorder, and women's issues. Whatever is going on, let's explore together!!!

Rebecca is very approachable and is the perfect balance of listening and offering insight and suggestions. I also appreciate how she shares her own experiences and struggles - it helped me feel less alone in my thoughts. She breaks down large issues into manageable pieces with next steps. I started therapy focusing on my grief over losing my dad but we are exploring struggles with motherhood, my relationship with my mom and career changes.

Rebecca is so thoughtful and caring. I have really noticed a difference in my anxiety while working with her. She gives a lot of helpful advice and helpful coping mechanisms.

Rebecca listens and talks...she doesn't judge or preach or indicate that one way is the only way. She continues to offer me options on how to deal with my issues and in many times can personally relate to how I am feeling...which is very welcome and helpful.

I had seen so many therapist over the years with out feeling better. However after just 3 months of doing sessions with Rebecca I feel a difference. She is teaching me to use tools that have helped me get through a lot of the grief I have had over losing my mama and my aunt. Helping to strengthen my marriage and my relationship with my kids. She is a wonderful therapist.
