About Me Hi, friend — I’m Shawn, a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people heal from the inside out through trauma-informed, mindfulness-based, and motivational therapy.

Whether you’re untangling the impact of trauma, struggling with anxiety, or just feeling disconnected from yourself, my goal is to help you rediscover peace, purpose, and confidence in your life. My Approach My work is guided by compassion, grounded in neuroscience, and built on practical tools for real change. I combine: Trauma Therapy – to help you process and release the weight of past experiences safely and gently. Mindfulness Practices – to reconnect body and mind, quiet racing thoughts, and bring calm awareness to the present moment. Motivational Therapy – to strengthen your sense of direction, boost confidence, and help you move from stuck to steady. Each session is tailored to your needs — a balance of reflection, insight, and action. Together, we’ll work to build resilience, restore hope, and create new patterns that align with the life you want to live.
