On Dr. Shannon’s clinical approach, he writes, “My goal in our work is to be that objective ear and mutually work together towards your goals. At this pivotal time of development, many students are enduring psychological, social, academic and career-related distress. I believe both preventive efforts of distress and current distress can be worked through the collaborative work of the counseling relationship. The center of my practice is to hold those moments of challenge, distress, anxiety and pain through means of humanistic engagement. My hope is that counseling encourages you to feel self-worth, self-esteem and strength as you navigate this juncture of your development.”
