Meet Shannon

Hi, I’m Shannon.

I’d like to give you a warm welcome to Kind-Natured Psychotherapy! Reaching out for support from a psychotherapist can be a big step, but it says a lot about your bravery. I’d be honoured to be part of your journey by providing virtual therapy appointments online.

I am a EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist, a Certified Clinical Partner Specialist (APSATS) and am a Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO #11110), and focus on providing therapy with a down-to-earth and compassionate approach. My goal is to work with you to help you find peace, empowerment, healing and understanding in a safe, supportive environment. I  hold additional training in Gottman Level 1 & 2, EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and IFS-Informed care. I also hold specialized betrayal trauma training as a Certified Clinical Partner Specialist with APSATS.

I absolutely love my work and feel privileged to embark on this transformative journey with my clients.  I interweave IFS, EMDR and attachment-focused therapy to support clients from a trauma-informed lens. My approach to therapy is to stay human, curious, warm and engaged – these values shape my approach to therapy.

I believe in keeping life simple and living each day true to my values, which are:

• Authenticity
• Empathy
• Kindness
• Balance
• Autonomy
• Compassion
