Life can be challenging and uncertain at times. It can also be difficult to ask for support, but when we do, it can drastically change our lives for the better. My name is Shannon Russo and I’m a Licensed Master Social Worker practicing psychotherapy in Port Jefferson, NY.
I utilize a client centered approach with a combination of strength-based perspective and solution focused therapy. I specialize in working with teens and adults who struggle with anxiety, self esteem issues, stress, trauma and women’s issues. I understand that meaningful growth begins when clients feel safe, understood and seen.
My goal is to create a nonjudgmental, safe environment for my clients to be able to explore meaningful ways to break down barriers and find a multitude of techniques to feel empowered and facilitate change.
