Shannon Allen, a pre-licensed professional therapist, believes in guiding individuals towards the path of becoming the happiest versions of themselves, rather than simply fixing them. She understands that everyone has a unique story and is dedicated to helping those who feel lost pick up the pieces. Shannon's passion lies in working with individuals facing challenges such as addiction, substance abuse, alcohol dependence, depression, personality disorders, mood disorders, and the anxiety brought on by various stressors. Her gentle approach is primarily rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, enriched with Motivational Interviewing skills and person-centered techniques, as well as a variety of counseling theories and interventions. The essence of her therapy is to ensure that clients leave with a clearer mind, equipped with the answers they’ve been seeking. Shannon knows that sometimes all one needs is a companion in navigating through difficult stages of life, and she firmly believes that prioritizing mental health is the most impactful decision one can make.
