I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 17 years of clinical experience gained in a variety of settings including schools, outpatient and inpatient mental health facilities and a college counseling center. I have worked with individuals, families, children and adults coping with a variety of common concerns such as depression, anxiety, stress and relationships, and more chronic issues including schizophrenia, bipolar disorder and personality disorders. In addition to my broad clinical background, I have gained expertise as trauma-focused clinician providing individual and family therapy and community-based interventions to children who have experienced traumas suffered from neglect and abuse. I have also often served as a clinical advocate testifying in court on behalf of my clients’ needs and well-being. Encountering Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) on a regular basis has put me on the cutting edge of treating stress from an integrated body and mind and social perspective. Augmenting to my holistic perspective, I have confidence in the power of psychodynamic/insight oriented therapy. I believe that the key to a successful therapeutic experience is being able to connect with yourself and a trustworthy guide in a safe and calm environment, so that the root of difficulties and the path to overcoming them can become clear.

Hello and thanks for checking my profile! About me...well, like you its easy for me to tell you the basic's; about my education, attending graduate school at Carlow University and focusing on professional counseling, my experience; working with people that struggle with addictions, trauma, loss, bi-polar disorder, anxiety and depression, stress, acceptance and anger. My treatment approach depends on what help's you and can including motivational interviewing, solution focused, psychoeducation, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy and psychotherapy. I believe life experiences can contribute to the therapeutic relationship which isn't anything that is taught but learned, that being said, I've learned to listen, to stay objective and work with someone that is willing to explore together the possibility of answers, changes, actions, challenges, and steps that provide improvements towards achieving your goals. I can't perform miracles but that doesn't mean they don't exist, sometimes its about the process and the willingness to search. Welcome and congratulations on taking the biggest step in therapy, getting started!

I will get in the trenches with you and we will find the light together. I look forward to working with you! Shannon Gaiser

We HEALING!! Welcome to the EXPERIENCE...This is NOT the same Western Philosophy to therapy. We are HEALING the entire Bio-field!!! I promote CHANGE and our journey is an Experience. I combine mindfulness, cognitive therapy, sound frequency, introspective exercises and psycho-education to create powerful change. It is energy....we are all connected through energy. The relationship that you have with your self is projected in every interpersonal relationship, in your life. You will see where you are in relation to self, by your external relationships. I believe in creating what you want to see in your life. We will focus on the physical & mental connection during treatment. Mindfulness has been proven to improve overall health, memory, concentration and focus while lessening emotional reactivity & anger. I utilize metaphysics, meditation & hypnotherapy to promote understanding of your subconscious mind. Together, we identify any core beliefs or past trauma that could be hindering the healing process. I look forward to guiding you through your path of introspection, reflection, clarity and revelation. Our Initial Assessment covers Behavioral health history, challenges, and wellness goals. Coaching will be provided around mindfulness, diet, lifestyle, energy connection, and more. Healing will be promoted through the 5 elements of life: ~Water, (Nurturing & Purifying energy) ~Earth, (Grounding) ~Fire, (Body, immune systems, chakra's, lymphatic system) ~Air, (Divine Spirit) As your practitioner I will pull from psychodynamic modalities, shadow work , mindfulness, and so much more. Welcome to the Journey See you soon...on the couch!
