“Shawnee is the only therapist I've ever truly connected with and I felt understood my brain - it's an understatement to say she has changed my life for the better since we started working together. I am experiencing something deeply traumatic with my father's health at the moment, and the sessions each week have been unbelievably helpful in navigating this, supporting my family and making me a better person throughout it.”

Getting to know Shawnee Isaac-Smith
I am a Jungian Psychotherapist and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Dominguez Hills. My goal is to assist my clients in developing more meaningful, centered lives. I have a compassionate and supportive style and enjoy working with both individuals and couples, honoring the uniqueness of each person by creating a safe and nurturing environment.
I take a holistic and person-centered approach, believing that a client's environment strongly impacts their emotional, physical, and mental state. I work with couples and families to foster understanding and respect, helping them acknowledge, define, and negotiate their differences, and resolve conflicts to achieve more supportive and healthy relationships.
My practice is influenced by many streams, including Jungian, Body-Centered, Depth Psychotherapy, Transactional Analysis, and Buddhist mindfulness. Additionally, I have extensive experience supporting clients and families through the final stages of life. Through a process of self-discovery, I assist my clients on their journeys through life's challenges by helping them develop and learn new communication and coping skills.
