Shannon Westphal
(She/Her/Hers)
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
Our mission is to empower individuals to discover and resolve the roots of the problems to instill hope, strength, and liberation.
My approach is rooted in a bottom-up perspective, striving to understand what makes each individual unique in their strengths and challenges. My passion for this work is energized by empowering individuals to find healing and enhance their lives into what they wish them to be. My clinical experience involves serving children, adolescents, and adults through individual and group therapy. My approach is to empower individuals and families to use their strengths and resources to grow, heal, and find liberation in their lives. I utilize strength-based, solution-focused, mindfulness-based, and cognitive behavioral approaches to work collaboratively with each client’s individual goals. I am also trained and specialize in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) treatment.
