Shawn earned his Master's Degree in Counseling from National Louis University and received his Bachelor's Degree in Philosophy from Lake Forest College. I began my career working in Mchenry County SASS which was the child and adolescent crisis response team. During that time I developed and honed skills that resonate with children and adolescents in order to help determine core issues and work towards action plans on how to progress on those issues. Anxiety, depression, and other symptoms can decrease your quality of life and make you feel not like yourself.

Between the frenetic pace of the modern lifestyle and media’s frequent messaging that we are not enough (which looks unique for each of us) it's no surprise that while we may be more “connected” than ever, we may also be finding ourselves more stressed, lonely, scattered, and/or irritable than ever. We've been sold the belief that if we "just work harder", then we will finally unlock the life we’ve always wanted. And yet, this equation doesn’t always seem to add up the way we thought it would. And that can leave us with a sense of frustration, disillusionment, and feeling stuck.

I believe we are not meant to go alone through life's challenges. Loss, grief, and unexpected changes; sense of purpose or meaning; questions of identity, gender, or sexuality; aging or illness; the role of spirituality in our lives - all of these can feel too overwhelming to sort through alone. In my practice, I offer space and support to bring fears and questions out of the darkness and into a shared, safe environment where they can be faced. I work with adults, teens, and youth ten and older, with a client-centered, strengths-based approach to help you find your best path forward.
