Getting to know Shannon Gooch

Hi there, I'm Shannon! Deciding to start therapy can seem a little overwhelming. I commend your courage to choose yourself while allowing me to partner with you on your healing journey. My name is Shannon Gooch, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor. I have extensive experience working with adults and families in crises. I have earned a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and a Master's Degree in Professional Counseling. My love for working with people and families in crisis has led me to practice as a counselor. My approach My approach incorporates assessing your concerns and locating practical strategies to empower you to manage your issues. I am focused on helping you adopt skills for self-discovery and development while maintaining success. My approaches are Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution-Focused. My goal is to teach you to: (A) control irrational thoughts, (B) identify the true issues, and (C) empower you to identify practical solutions. If irrational thoughts are managed, they become easier to problem-solve and address the issues. Counseling can be a highly instrumental tool in helping you become aware of your thoughts, find solutions to your issues, and self-regulate your mood. My focus Do you find yourself battling feelings of hopelessness? Are you overwhelmed or facing anxiety due to matters in your life? Are you doubting yourself? I am here to help you. I will work as your partner to identify and formulate an achievable plan for your success. My communication style I value an open style of communication, free of judgment. As a careful and empathetic listener, I will partner with you as we process your issues and formulate obtainable solutions. My journey to mental healthcare My experience as a wife and mother has helped me become more relatable. Working in various practice settings has led me to be detail-oriented, forward-thinking, and thorough. I strive to provide the same level of service to my clients as I would expect for myself.
