Shannon holds a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Utah and a Bachelor’s degree in Marriage, Family, and Human Development. She primarily works with adults in individual therapy.
Shannon feels that it is an honor to sit with people and hear their stories, sometimes things they've never told anyone before. She approaches therapy as a collaborative effort. Something that informs her practice came from a trusted therapist who told her years ago, "It's not my job to tell you what's best for you. It's my job to help you figure out what's best for you." Shannon feels that you are the expert of your life and respects that. She helps clients work through past experiences that are still impacting them, clarify their values and live a life centered around them, identify blind spots they may have, offer an outside perspective, work on coping skills, and much more. Above all, she wants to work with you on whatever your own personal therapeutic goals may be.
Shannon is committed to continued growth and learning. She enjoys expanding her knowledge and seeking out evidence-based practices as she works with clients, catering to their individual needs and circumstances. Shannon's personal life experiences enhance her understanding and ability to connect with others. She looks forward to meeting you wherever you may be in life, and being part of your journey of continued self-discovery and improvement.
