Starting therapy can feel like a big step my approach is all about making the process feel comfortable, supportive, and down-to-earth—like a real conversation, not a clinical checklist. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, going through a big life change, or just feeling stuck, we’ll figure things out together at your pace. I bring a warm, relaxed, and non-judgmental energy to every session, and my goal is to create a space where you can be your full self—laugh, cry, vent, reflect, explore… whatever you need, it's all welcome. I've had the privilege of working with kids, teens, and adults, and I understand that each stage of life comes with its own ups, downs, and curveballs. No matter where you are on your journey, we’ll start there—no pressure, no pretense. Just real talk and real support.

I've been a licensed clinical social worker for over 30 years. I graduated with a bachelor's degree from University of California Los Angeles then worked a few years in the "corporate world" before going to graduate school. I got my Master of Social Work at University of Southern California. Since then I have worked with a wide variety of people; from those with terminal illnesses, to those coping with childhood trauma, to those with situational depression and anxiety. The one thing all my clients have in common is the opportunity to be truly seen and heard. Sometimes that is with quiet compassion and sometimes it's by having me cheer them on as they move toward their goals.

Something meaningful in your life isn't working — even though on the outside, things look fine. You've tried therapy, you have insight into your patterns, but something still isn't shifting. That's exactly who I work with. I'm a licensed therapist in Pasadena, California. Before becoming a therapist, I spent most of my adult life as a successful executive in investment management — driven, accomplished, and always moving. What I didn't realize until my 50s was that the constant motion was keeping me from slowing down enough to feel. Therapy changed that profoundly enough that I left my career, went back to school, and became a therapist myself.

Does this sound like you? On the outside, you appear capable, driven, and responsible—the person who consistently meets every expectation. But internally, you may feel emotionally drained, disconnected, or weighed down by past experiences. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition, these challenges can leave you feeling stuck and questioning your sense of balance. I work with teens and adults who are ready to look beneath the surface. Together, we work to better understand your experiences, heal from the past, and develop practical ways to cope so you can feel more grounded and aligned with the life you want to create. Struggling to "fix the issue" on your own isn’t a sign of weakness—it’s a sign that you’re human. I believe therapy should feel real, collaborative, and deeply grounded. In our sessions, you will find a steady, down-to-earth space where we work side by side to help you move forward with renewed confidence.

Welcome—I'm glad you're here. I'm a licensed therapist with over 15 years of experience helping adults build stronger, more compassionate relationships—with themselves and with others. I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, self-critical thoughts, and the feeling of being stuck or disconnected from what matters most. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative. I draw from evidence-based therapies including Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS)-informed work. These approaches help clients not only manage emotional challenges, but also clarify their values and move toward a more meaningful, fulfilling life. At the heart of our work is the belief that healing comes through greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and self-compassion. Whether you're struggling with a harsh inner critic, navigating a transition, or simply feeling out of alignment, therapy can help you reconnect with your strengths and make choices that reflect who you truly are. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed—but leave with greater clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of purpose. If you're ready to move forward with more self-kindness, intention, and meaning, I’d be honored to support your journey.

*I only work with individuals, no couples, no minors (under 18)* Trained in a range of therapeutic approaches, I am available to help clients navigate trauma, anxiety, relational issues, communication skills, depression, and stress management . As a first generation Eritrean American born and raised in the Bay Area, I struggled with a sense of belonging throughout my adolescence, often straddling the line between multiple identities and insecurities surrounding the idea of not being “American enough" and not being “African enough.” Early on in college, I took a psychology class that helped me further understand the human condition and its applications in my own life. I learned transformative concepts in terms of moods, relationships, and behaviors, prompting me to further pursue the field of psychology. Since then, I have taken it upon myself to get advanced training in various therapeutic approaches, which I believe help clients get the most out of their therapy experience.

I’m Shauna del Reed, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Functional Nutrition Counselor. My belief is simple: every part of who we are matters, influencing our health both mentally and physically. The tension in your shoulders, the racing thoughts at night, the unpredictable energy levels, the moments of irritability or foggy focus, and even the digestive discomfort you might dismiss, all have a story to tell. In our work together, we look beneath the surface to understand what your symptoms are pointing to. Stress, trauma, and lifestyle patterns are often woven together, and when we address them in connection with each other, change becomes possible. I bring both clinical expertise and functional nutrition training to help you create a plan that is as practical as it is restorative. I understand that healing is rarely linear, and it is never one size fits all. For this reason, I utilize a whole-person perspective, combined with compassion and curiosity, to support you in creating a life that feels calmer, more connected, and more aligned with the person you know yourself to be.

I also provide mindfulness training, which is one of the key techniques for the clients to be more present and accepting in their lives, rather than react reflexively. Each individual's struggles are complex and tied to many factors including their social environment, their physical health, the phases of their lives, skills they already possess, etc. In other words, change can happen in a variety of ways and that's what counseling can help with, pointing out the direction and even the next steps that can help the client to get to their goals and intentions. I work with clients experiencing sleep disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, mood issues, ADHD, career counseling, and those who simply need a tune-up.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who works with individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance use challenges. I focus on helping people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward by building practical tools that can be used in everyday life. My approach is grounded in evidence-based practices, but I also bring real-life experience and understanding into the work. I don’t see this as just a job—it is something I feel called to do. I am genuinely invested in helping people grow, overcome challenges, and create meaningful change. I strive to create a space that is supportive, honest, and free of judgment. I will meet you where you are while also helping you take steps toward where you want to be. My goal is to help you feel more in control, more confident, and better equipped to handle life’s challenges.

I am a doctoral-level therapist who believes that the right therapeutic relationship can change everything. I work with adults moving through life's harder seasons — relationship struggles, personal growth, anxiety, and the weight of everyday stress — as well as parents raising children through school challenges, screen overuse, and mental health difficulties. In our sessions, you can expect warmth, honesty, and a space where nothing is off limits. I will never push you faster than you are ready to go, but I will gently challenge you when it serves your growth. I believe that real change does not come from advice — it comes from helping you reconnect with your own wisdom and build the kind of relationships, both with yourself and others, that allow you to truly thrive. If you are ready for thoughtful, caring work with someone genuinely invested in your story, I would love to connect.
