Hi there! I’m Shannon and I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in Los Angeles, California. I have been working with creative clients in entertainment since 2015. I have extensive experience supporting the nuanced social and emotional challenges creative professionals face. I aim to help clients navigate the emotional experience of interacting with the “machine” of entertainment and the culture it’s built on and around, so they can cultivate a meaningful and joyful quality of life. I strive to empower clients to process and resolve interpersonal and personal struggles, heal from the pain that echoes from those struggles and prepare clients to feel confident and equipped to meet and overcome future challenges. I like to use solution-oriented models with a focus on behavioral interventions, to hopefully bring clients a sense of relief as soon as possible and help empower them to make the changes they want to make. I'm passionate about working from a curiosity based, non-judgemental stance and feel privileged to provide space for clients to tell their stories and feel heard. My work centers on cultivating hope, promoting self-trust by enabling self-discovery, self-identification and self interpretation as well as improving communication skills and building mindfulness and de-escalation skills in moments of crisis. I like to empower clients to value that they are the expert in their lives and validate their ability to be the agent of change. I have worked in educational, residential, corporate and production related settings as well as in office and virtually. I have experience supporting clients who face depression, anxiety, challenges in romantic relationships, child rearing, parenting issues as well as personal growth and adjustment/transition issues, including grief/loss, long term maintenance and recovery from addiction, past personal and family of origin related trauma and abuse, interpersonal relational struggles in personal life and collaborative career relationships. The modalities I use in psychotherapeutic treatment are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. I also utilize Bowen Family Systems, Existential Therapy and Trauma Focused CBT.

I have worked with individuals and couples working on their relationships as well as their challenges of daily living.
