Shannan OConnor, LMFT

Psychotherapist
CA
Hi there, I'm Shannan! I am licensed in California and have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, and intimacy-related concerns. I believe you are the expert of your story and have many strengths to overcome challenges. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling life and take the first steps toward change. I am here to support and empower you on that journey. I hold a Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to provide compassionate, effective care. My approach is person-centered, humanistic, and incorporates CBT. My focus includes stress and anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, low/depressed mood, and emotional dysregulation. My communication style is open, accepting, genuine, and straightforward. I strive to make clients feel comfortable. I am not perfect, so there is no need for clients to perform, speak with perfect grammar, or convey thoughts flawlessly. My journey to mental healthcare is personal. Therapy helped me start my path to becoming a therapist. I had always wanted to be one but lacked faith in myself. Before therapy, I thought I had limits on what I could accomplish. Therapy opened my eyes to new ways of thinking and many choices—not just for me but for everyone aware of them. Therapy changed my life in many wonderful ways, and I feel privileged to pay it forward. My goal is to empower those I work with to determine what to focus on in sessions. I am here to support and help you reach your goals. In our first session, we will cover legal topics, including limits of confidentiality and your rights; discuss your mental health history and any questions about the process; and explore your personal history to better understand your needs.
