Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist
Welcome, my name is Shavontae and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I have experience working with adolescents/teens, adults and their families. As someone who has gone through a life-changing event, I am passionate about supporting others and their families to overcome challenges related to coping with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and other chronic illnesses and about bringing awareness of how a chronic illness can have a major impact on an individual and their families’ mental health. Chronic illnesses can causes depression, anxiety, stress, anger, grief and I am here to support you through it. I believe that therapy gives us an opportunity to be our authentic selves. It creates a safe space to explore our inner truths and speak of them freely in a non-judgmental environment. As humans, we value safety, and having connections with others and with every connection is an opportunity for personal growth. I describe myself as a genuine and selfless person with big goals to make a positive impact on people's lives. If you think we might be a good fit, I encourage you to reach out today!
