Getting to know Shana Castro

My name is Shana Castro, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in Pensacola, Florida. I am honored to serve through this profession. I earned my Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from the University of West Florida and have over four years of clinical experience. My work focuses on helping those struggling to form deep and meaningful relationships or emotional bonds with others, often as a result of childhood experiences. Do you find yourself feeling lonely or empty even in a room full of people? Have you or others noticed recurring patterns in your relationships? Does conflict often feel unproductive for you? Maybe you turn to mind-numbing scrolling on your phone, gaming, substance use, online shopping, people-pleasing, excessive work, isolating, meaningless sex, attention-seeking, or serial relationships to get by. These are all signs of something much deeper—areas I am passionate about addressing with clients.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
