I took my first introductory to psychology class in high school and this inspired me to pursue higher degrees in the psychology field. I eventually narrowed by specialty to forensic psychology, and I have a master's degree in forensic mental health counseling and have worked in several community settings. During my time working in community settings, I was able to witness the need for more outpatient therapists.

Hello there! My name is Dr. Shanda Reynolds, LMHC. I work with brave individuals, throughout the age span, who are ready to live in the present moment. While our past builds us up to who we are now, we are best served when we recognize the value of those experiences while not using them as a gauge to determine our value right now. We work on goals by helping to unpack where you feel constrained. Sometimes we begin with a larger goal that we work on "right sizing" to a more concentrated size. Often, we will begin working on one goal and realize other goals may need to be addressed first. All of this is done in collaboration.

Psychodynamic, existential, spiritual, and holistic health frameworks will provide additional support to our work together.
Together, we can evaluate how your personality, behaviors, lifestyle, and relationships come together either to promote or impede your health. I am skilled with helping people whose anxiety manifests as obsessions, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, avoidance, perfectionism, and other such behaviors. My attention to all-around health is also useful for working with those experiencing depression or addictive behaviors. In addition, I enjoy supporting individuals experiencing relational or familial difficulties, romantic/sexual dissatisfaction, or issues at the intersection of gender and culture.

I will work with you holistically, making space for your spiritual/ existential self, and the ways you are seeking new meaning.
Everything is different now. You’ve lost someone important to you, and it’s hard to make sense of this new reality. Your heart can’t make sense of it. This isn’t how you wanted it to be. You’re afraid, sad, angry, regretful. And there’s numbness too. You wonder if you could have done something different, you trace over everything that has happened. You feel everything and nothing. You’re deep in a terrain where consolation is far away and words can’t penetrate. How can you go forward now? The path is unclear. To go forward feels like a betrayal of the love you feel for who you lost. You don’t know the way.

I use different treatment modalities to treat symptoms that are triggered by any number of life stressors: family conflicts, relationship concerns, medical conditions, work related stress, acculturation difficulties, existential angst.
I won't know on day one what method of treatment works best for you, because people reveal themselves over time, and at their own pace. My holistic, culturally sensitive approach is rooted in respect, truth and compassion. I respect the unique way in which you show up in the world. I believe there is power in discovering your truth, and I will always show you compassion. I incorporate my knowledge of the human body that I gained through professional experience in the fitness/yoga industry to help you better understand the connection between the mind, the body and the spirit.

How does existential therapy work?
Existential therapy focuses on a patient’s inner experiences. The therapist tries to help the individual comprehend and alleviate symptoms by exploring their interior life. By confronting negative disquiet and emotions, the individual will hopefully become more open to finding meaning and purpose. This therapy can be administered to individuals or groups.
Is existential therapy evidence-based?
Existential therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has determined that existential therapy can lead to significant improvement in the mental health of patients, and for some people it can be just as effective as cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of existential therapy are enduring, even long after treatment has ended.
How long does existential therapy last?
The goal of existential therapy is to understand a person’s internal experiences, which may sound like a lengthy process, but it does not have to be so in-depth. However, sessions are not short-term, and therapy can continue for months or up to a year. And because patients learn the theory behind existential therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is existential therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with existential therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving feelings of isolation, feelings of purposelessness, as well as conditions such as anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can persist even after the end of existential therapy, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve developed during treatment.
