I specialize in pregnancy wellness, reproductive and maternal mental health with a focus on postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, pregnancy loss and infertility.

First session

In our first session together, we'll start with a brief introduction followed by a conversation about your personal and mental health history. We will also talk about specific challenges you are facing and what brings you to therapy.

Strengths

I work to tailor treatment towards each individual's needs and I encourage my clients to feel empowered in the therapeutic process.

Ideal clients

I work with people who often feel very alone and isolated by their depression or anxiety. I love working with women who are struggling with infertility, pregnant, or postpartum as these struggles are very common yet incredibly isolating.

Treatment methods

Eclectic

Welcome! I am a License Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of experience helping clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, life transitions as well as grief and loss. I offer virtual sessions for clients in California and Illinois and have evening and weekend appointments available.

I felt very comfortable with Shanon on the first (intake) session. I think we are a good match. Insightful questions and helpful recommendations/solutions.

It's really good to get feedback about my thoughts. It's also really great to see how she thinks about everything I say. At this point she thoroughly remembers who I am and what I have going on in my life. She encourages me to advocate for myself. I feel like we are getting more done now, and more quickly. She's positive and insightful.
