I’m passionate about helping clients feel genuinely supported to tackle whatever comes their way. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is one of the most important parts of healing, and I strive to create a space that feels warm, collaborative, and free of judgment.
I am licensed in Texas with over 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, anger management, & depression. I am here to help you gain a better sense of yourself and maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle. I believe in providing a space where clients can talk freely while providing gentle assurance as needed. Open up at your own comfort level, I am here to support you!
Hello and welcome—I'm so glad you're here.
My name is Shanna Gardner, LPC-S, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor with over 20 years of experience in the mental health field. I'm deeply passionate about helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and discover a sense of peace, purpose, and emotional wellness.
I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel safe, heard, and truly understood. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming stress, navigating a tough life transition, or managing symptoms of anxiety or depression, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
You’ve probably spent a lot of time trying to make things work. You’ve read the books, tried different approaches, had the hard conversations, and stayed hopeful through the ups and downs. But despite your efforts, the same patterns keep surfacing. Maybe connection still feels out of reach, or the overwhelm continues to build. Therapy can offer space to pause, reflect, and grow with support that meets you where you are and helps you move toward the change you’re ready for.
I hold a PhD in Social Work with a specialization in Family Studies. I’m a therapist, researcher, and educator who works with individuals, couples, and families navigating relational stress, trauma, identity shifts, and emotional exhaustion. I specialize in helping people explore what’s beneath the surface and create new ways of relating with others and with themselves. I bring years of experience focused on attachment, trauma, and relational health through both clinical practice and academic research. This work is not just my profession. It is what I live, teach, and continue to study with intention and heart.
You've been called too much, or not enough. Maybe both, depending on the room. I work with individuals and couples in affirming, culturally responsive therapy. POC, LGBTQIA+ folks, people in ENM and nontraditional relationships, and anyone who's spent a lifetime translating themselves to be understood. Clients come in carrying grief, people-pleasing patterns, identity questions, the weight of being misread, or a relationship that's drifted, gone quiet, or is trying to find a new shape that actually fits. I'll challenge you and stay warm doing it. I don't ask you to shrink or perform to be met. This is a space to be known in full.
