Getting to know Carolyn Homan Shannon

Hi, my name is Kari Homan Shannon. I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master’s in Community Counseling from Andrews University. Since 2007, I have focused on helping clients address depression, anxiety, PTSD, hoarding, and trauma. My approach I believe in seeing the person first—understanding what they need and what they’d like help with—and then addressing those issues using a variety of techniques. One of my favorite therapies is Emotional Release Therapy, which is the fastest technique I’ve found and incorporates the client’s faith base. I recognize this might not be for everyone, so I also have many other skills and tools to meet you where you are and support whatever you need. My focus Throughout my career, I’ve concentrated on depression, anxiety, PTSD, hoarding, and trauma. I aim to help you get back on your feet as quickly as possible while respecting your individual pace and preferences. We will work together in whatever way feels comfortable to you. I won’t tell you how to live your life, but I will help you find your own answers so you can feel more empowered moving forward. My communication style My style is warm and inviting. I strive to make each session feel like time spent with a trusted friend, a favorite aunt, or simply someone who truly understands you. I am down-to-earth, gentle, and compassionate. My journey to therapy I discovered therapy after dropping out of college the first time. Feeling aimless, I began therapy myself and quickly realized how rewarding it was to help others lead better lives. That inspired me to return to school and become a therapist, and the rest is history. My first session with you Our first session will typically focus on getting to know each other, building rapport, exploring your concerns, identifying skills you already have, and gaining a fuller understanding of you as a whole.
