Whatever your problem is, I am ready to support you in your journey toward wellness.
My name is Shannon Thiessen and I have a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology and am a Registered Clinical Counsellor. I am also registered with the CCPA. I have been in the counselling field for over 20 years and have worked with a variety of issues including addiction, depression and anxiety, as well as many other diagnoses/issues. I also worked specifically with children and youth using both a play and skills based approach to help children and youth emotionally regulate. I am currently enrolled in the School of Neurotherapy and being trained to be certified as an EEG expert and a certified neurofeedback specialist. I am under the supervision of two incredible psychologists: Dr. Nicholas Dogris and Dr. Tiffany Thompson. I have a passion for helping others and grew frustrated with the lack of medical support available to my clients. So many clients struggled to find the “right” medication and 40 percent of people are treatment resistant to medications. I wanted to offer an alternative to support the physiological components of mental illnesses. Having experienced neurotherapy firsthand, I decided that this was the next challenge for me. I look forward to supporting you in your journey towards better mental health and brain optimization!
