Meet Shannon
Shannon Mcgovern, Ma, NCC
“Life can be difficult, and you don’t have to go through it alone.”
If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply in need of a space where you can truly be yourself, you're in the right place. Therapy is a space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely, express all your feelings without judgment, and recognize the strengths that already exist within you. Together, we will work to foster personal growth and create meaningful change so you can live a more fulfilling life.
You deserve to feel seen, heard, and accepted. In our sessions, you will have a space where you can openly discuss whatever is on your mind. As we work together, you'll gain a deeper understanding of yourself—who you are, what you want, and what might be holding you back. We will identify and let go of limiting thoughts and stories that no longer serve you while developing coping strategies and healthier ways of being, so you can move toward the life you desire.
If you are seeking support for your relationship, couples therapy can help you and your partner break through patterns of conflict, improve communication, and strengthen your emotional connection. Whether you’re navigating a difficult transition, feeling disconnected, or wanting to rebuild trust, we will work together to create a safe and supportive space where both of you can be heard and understood. Relationships require care and attention, and through therapy, you can build a stronger foundation for lasting connection and growth.
Life can be difficult, and you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy isn’t just about techniques or theories—it’s about human connection. My role is to be present with you, to listen, to understand, and to help you feel truly supported. Even if I haven’t experienced what you’re going through firsthand, I will be here with you, creating a space where you can feel safe and empowered. Together, we will build a strong, collaborative relationship based on warmth, respect, authenticity, and even a little humor when needed.
If you’re ready to take the next step—whether for yourself or your relationship—I’m here to walk alongside you.
Who I work with:
I work with children, adolescents, adults, and couples who are seeking to overcome challenges with depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem, life transitions, and trauma. Together, we can identify your goals, uncover your values, and take steps towards building a life in accordance with your values. It would be my pleasure to be a part of your journey of self-discovery, health, and healing. I am excited to assist you in recognizing your strengths, feeling greater freedom to be the whole person that you are, developing confidence that you can cope with the uncertainties and challenges of life, as well as creating a future that feels right for you.
My rate per 50 minute session is $130.00
