Hello, my name is Shavonne. I am a Licensed Therapist and I’m passionate about helping over-functioning teens and adults detangle from the underlying belief that their worth is tied to their usefulness and achievement. Many of my clients struggle with feelings of extreme guilt and shame, people-pleasing tendencies, and suppressing their own needs so I focus on nurturing who they are as a person, outside of the roles they perform. I work from a humanistic perspective and I help my clients acknowledge and feel confident in their desires and boundaries to gain a secure sense of self and build more fulfilling relationship dynamics.

My passion lies in supporting those of all ages and identity backgrounds who are interested in self exploration and discovery. I practice from a trauma informed, sex-positive, queer affirming, feminist, spiritual and social justice-oriented standpoint. Understanding how the “personal is political” and how psychological challenges are rooted in systemic oppression is central to my work. My experience in sexual/reproductive healthcare and working as a birth and postpartum doula catalyzed my interest in supporting those undergoing vulnerability regarding their sexuality, pain, pleasure, health, gender identity and life transitions.

An ideal client is one that is asking for help. When a client is willing to ask for help, there can be breakthroughs in their personal life. Each client brings their need in one shape or form because communication varies and so does the way it's communicated.
