About Shannon
 
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist working with individuals, couples and groups in San Francisco. I have extensive training and experience working with women, couples and eating disorder-related issues.
 
My style is collaborative and interactive.  I take an integrative approach that addresses the whole client (mind, body, heart).  I work with each client to develop specific therapeutic goals in order to provide a treatment plan that is personally effective and empowering.  I am influenced by a variety of therapeutic modalities including psychodynamic, humanistic, experiential, relational and mindfulness. 
 
I have worked in a variety of therapeutic settings including The Marina Counseling Center, APTED Eating Disorder Clinic, Beyond Hunger, The Integral Counseling Center and SF Public Schools.
 
Prior to entering the field of psychothearpy, I enjoyed a 15 year career in the corporate world as a marketing and management executive,  I am also an experienced workshop leader, executive coach and trainer.
