Becoming a new parent can be hard and often extremely emotional. You might be asking yourself questions like, "Why won't my child sleep better? Why can't I breastfeed him? She doesn't seem to be bonding with me? Is he ever going to nap well? Why is she so fussy and cry all the time? Is it normal to feel so emotional and sad all the time?
Becoming a new parent can be hard and often extremely emotional. You might be asking yourself questions like, "Why won't my child sleep better? Why can't I breastfeed him? She doesn't seem to be bonding with me? Is he ever going to nap well? Why is she so fussy and cry all the time? Is it normal to feel so emotional and sad all the time? I'm loosing it with my partner! I'm so exhausted! Why is my 2 year old suddenly a nightmare? She won't listen to anything I say! I just don't know if I'm good a this parenting thing." All these thoughts and more are completely normal for new parents of infants and toddlers. You are not alone! Contact me to enquire about individual postpartum counseling or parenting coaching.

Maintaining a strong relationship requires constant care and communication, and certain traits have been shown to be especially important for fostering healthy relationships. Each individual should, for starters, feel confident that their partner or friend is willing to devote time and attention to the other. They must both also be committed to accommodating their differences, even as those change over time. Also, good relationships are generally marked by emotional and physical fairness as well as the ability to afford the other person the benefit of the doubt, which creates a sense of being on the same team. These are some of the aspects we will explore as well as build skills such as playfulness, acceptance, curiosity, and empathy to help create understanding, comfort trust, and healing.

Shannon has developed a sup-specialty focused on high performance professionals with especially demanding careers. She has a keen understanding of the unique challenges and demands of these roles and has developed a track record for helping these individuals unlock their full potential and elevate their game to an even higher level.
Focus areas include:
Balancing professional aspirations with the desire to be a good partner and/or parent.
The achievement of professional goals in a way that is consistent with personal values.
Manage and cope with the stress and responsibility of leadership when others are counting on you. (I.e., It's lonely at the top!)
Identifying and removing obstacles that stand in the way of personal and professional success and fulfillment.
Top performers and industry leaders have commonalities above and beyond hard work and leadership that sets them apart from the rest. Some include:
INTROSPECTION - the willingness to take self inquiry and personal accountability
ENERGY - the ability to always operate at peak performance
VISION - the ability to anticipate when and how change is necessary for success.
Sometimes, these necessary qualities can be overshadowed by emotional challenges or roadblocks. Often times, these roadblocks can unconsciously get in the way of our ability to operate at full potential. Together we will explore how your life experiences work to shape your sense of self and your view and interaction with the world around you. We will then intern, shift these perspectives as a way to effectuate change and mastery over your life both personally and professionally.

Are you feeling unfulfilled? Are you in need of inspiration or confirmation that you are on the right path? Are you looking to find a deeper purpose in your life? Or maybe looking for a deeper spiritual connection? Are you missing a loved one or looking to make peace with a loved one who has crossed over? Are you longing to feel more present in your life? You may feel at a crossroads, or as though you’ve tried many different practices and can’t find the one that works for you. You may be wanting something more out of life, to feel more connected to the people and the world around you or to find a deeper sense of meaning.
You are not alone. Progressing on a spiritual path can sometimes feel overwhelming, lonely, and confusing. As a spiritual medium and trained psychotherapist, I can help you to connect with the divine presence within and remove the obstacles to true happiness, joy, love, success and health.
Through the use of visualization, emotional work, mindfulness and presence, you will develop a pathway towards letting go of old paradigms and awakening to a greater spiritual meaning and connection.
Are you ready to get on the path to a healthier you? Get in touch today to get started!
