Hi! I'm Shannon and I am an Integrative counsellor. I offer a safe, healing, and inclusive space to explore any concerns or issues that might be affecting your day to day life. If you're finding that you are struggling to put your needs first, overcommitting, becoming overwhelmed, feeling lost, struggling with low confidence and self belief, then counselling might be something to consider. Together, we will work towards helping you understand yourself better and empower you to make changes so you can live a more authentic and balanced life.
I will always be guided by you, at your pace, with what you feel comfortable with, and work towards building a therapeutic relationship based on respect and trust. During our time together, we may explore self-limiting beliefs, where they come from, and create lasting change that is aligned with who you truly are.
I have been in the client seat before and empathise with how overwhelming and scary it can be to be vulnerable with another person. I've also experienced how life changing counselling can be. I hope to accompany you on this journey with compassion, curiosity, and sensitivity.
If you would like to learn more about me and my approach, please visit my website at www.shannoncounselling.com.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
