He is attentive and really listens with full understanding. He doesn't beat around the bush and helps get to the root of the issue with making you feel like you don't know yourself. I've been in therapy for 18 years and he's one of the best I've had. I'd recommend him to anyone!

I came to better health and chose Shane as my counselor because I was having relationship problems with my significant other, & in just 3 sessions, Shane has helped me increase my self awareness, reflect which helped me hold myself accountable with my own actions. This resulted in having a better relationship with my boyfriend, having clarity & peace of mind. If I feel like I need to work with a therapist again in the future, Shane would be my therapist to go to again.

The aftermath of coronavirus (COVID-19) is going to be a contributing factor to deteriorating people’s mental health (including suicide) and it will get even worse as we work towards recovering from this pandemic. The pandemic has impacted us globally and economically shedding light on systemic and institutional racism that disproportionately limits resources and access to heath care depending on our zip code. I provide therapeutic therapy and support to help folks navigate through this “New Normal” we all are faced with adapting to along with working through issues such as anxiety, depression, frustration, and trauma.
I am trained in CBT and trauma focused treatment. I help to provide a safe space for you to talk through your issues and come to a solution about how you want to make change to improve your life. Change has to first start with increasing our awareness and our confidence that change is possible. I am here to support you let's partnership together. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
