Perhaps, something feels off. Maybe it has for a long while. You're exhausted from overthinking, from shrinking, from holding it all together while quietly losing yourself. It could be a relationship, a pattern, or just life piling up.
I'm Missy a licensed clinical social worker with a direct, compassionate style and one clear specialty-Short-Term Therapy.
I specialize in helping people build awareness, rebuild self trust and create real lasting change-not in years, but in focused 30-60 day goal cycles that help keep you moving forward.
My approach is warm, honest, and zero judgment. I'll celebrate your wins, challenge you when it's time to grow, and always keep our work grounded in what matters most to you.

Four things Shannon wants you to know before you begin therapy with her :
1. She wants treatment to work just as much as you do.
2. She is not judging you, and needs to hear all of your truth(s) in order to best support you. You can't heal what you won't reveal.
3. She can not and will not fight you for your healing.
What that means is: She will not work harder than you do. However, she will be right there beside you as the two of you navigate your Mental Health journey together.
4. If you don't connect with her, that's okay. Don't be afraid to try someone new, and keep trying until you find the right fit.
Shannon looks forward to working with you!
