A majority of my experience includes working with children, teen, and transitional age youth (age 16-26 years old).
My name is Shannon Walker and I began providing therapeutic services out of the calling to help those who truly want to heal. By taking a holistic approach to traditional therapy, I have come to discover that healing comes from the desire to change...because staying stagnant is no longer an option. I want to help you help yourself. If you are someone who likes a direct approach to understanding, connection, and communication, set up a free consultation and I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

I have specialized training in anxiety, depression, and trauma and have experience working with adults, children and families.
First of all, I am so glad you are here! I recognize the incredible courage it requires to take the first step and reach out to a therapist. Life can feel overwhelming, complicated, confusing …. But there is hope. You deserve a space to feel seen, accepted, and understood. While there are times in life where you may’ve had to shrink away from emotional or physical pain or fear, I believe healing comes from reconnecting with those places in our body, mind and heart that hold pain. The parts of us that are wounded need attention and love to heal. I will empower you to access the resources you have within yourself.

Child Therapists
Child psychologists in Ontario, CA provide mental health therapy to children and are experts in child development.

Every comprehensive review of therapy with children shows that all credible approaches, when performed by a competent mental health clinician, produce almost the same results. About half of all kids will get better. Of those that improve, 80% will show progress in a relatively short time, while the remaining 20% will need longer-term support.

The best child therapists in Ontario build great relationships with the child and the parent. They also see the child's strengths and are open to hearing the child's possible solutions to the challenges the child faces. Finally, a good therapist appreciates the child's culture and is sensitive to the values of the child's community.
