Shannon Goodwin, MA, LMHC

I have over 12 years of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (#LH60563484). I am excited to work with you to find more effective ways of coping with personal struggles, giving you the tools to thrive. My goal is that you feel empowered and resilient to face life’s challenges.

When working together you can expect me to be actively engaged, goal-oriented, and taking a collaborative approach. I typically see clients who are motivated and eager to make changes in their lives.

I utilize evidence-based practices (EBP’s) such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

I have specialized training in working with individuals who have experienced trauma. This includes:

• Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for adults

I am most passionate about working with those who struggle with:

• Eating disorders & disordered eating (such as bulimia, anorexia, and binge eating)

• Body image issues

• Trauma (past or recent)

• Anxiety

• Depression

• Self esteem

• Major life transitions such as: starting college or graduate school, graduating, entering the work force, moving, getting married, or adjusting to life in Seattle.

I am also a Washington state approved supervisor, mentoring young therapists.

When I am out of the office I enjoy spending time with family, friends, and my cat Henry.

If you are looking for a more spiritual healing approach, I offer in-person and distance reiki through Queen Anne Reiki LLC. I keep my counseling clients and reiki clients separate to honor boundaries.
