About Shawn

You Don't Have to Face It Alone

My approach is centered on empathy and collaboration, allowing each person's unique experiences and goals to guide the work we do together. Rather than using a one-size-fits-all method, I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches to create a plan that fits each individual.

My goal is to help clients make meaningful progress by addressing current struggles and by exploring the deeper patterns that may be holding them back from living a more balanced and fulfilling life. I have witnessed how beauty and growth can emerge from life's suffering, and it is my deepest hope that all of my clients experience that same transformation.

Outside of my work, I value time with my family and I have a love of learning for both people and processes. I enjoy activities like hiking, camping, cooking, and eating good food.
