GET TO KNOW YOUR THERAPIST

Hello! I am Shayna Parker! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and I work with a diverse age group of individuals who suffer from anxiety disorders, depression, relational problems, low self-esteem, post-traumatic stress,
adjustment disorders, grief, and ADHD.

 

My approach is a personal-centered approach using evidence-based modality cognitive behavioral therapy and a solution-focused model. I can incorporate faith-based
approaches upon client request using their strengths and values aligned with their faith to help resolve
and heal from any problems that interfere with living a more satisfying life.

 

As your therapist, I offer skills and therapeutic homework for work outside of our therapy sessions. I strive to provide a safe place where clients feel comfortable and understood.

 

Three words to describe me as a therapist would be:
Genuine, Warmth, and Open. Genuine and warmth are for honesty and speaking with love. Openness is
for being understanding and nonjudgmental towards my clients.

Who I am? I am a wife, mother, sister and daughter. I am originally from Los Angeles, California. I enjoy outdoor and family-friendly activities. I enjoy working out and finding new ways of movement for both my physical and mental health. Most recently I have been learning hip hop step-up aerobics and reformer Pilates.
