Shannon Busse
Therapist, ACMHC
“Healing happens against a social backdrop where we can explore all of the complicated aspects of our humanity.”
Shannon’s most important job is to ensure that clients feel safe enough to get curious about their stories, traumas, triggers, and subconscious patterning so they can decide what they want to bring with them into the future.
Shannon is a provisionally licensed clinical mental health counselor and integrates prevention and clinical work to minimize the ways negative patterns affect future generations. She advocates for courageous cycle breakers and creates fiercely empathetic spaces to look at foundational threats to wellness.
Understanding how personal history, family attachment, trauma, abuse, and societal power imbalances can hijack our life stories, she is dedicated to helping clients unearth their true stories and step into new possibilities of health.
Like so many of us, she’s stared into the darkness of trauma to pick up the shattered pieces of the life she thought she would have. She found that filtering decisions through a future story, an aspirational story, became a catalyst for growth and healing. It let her understand the necessity of moving forward in new ways that ultimately led her back to her truest self.
Shannon finds happiness through hiking with her kids, taking way too many photos, reading, traveling, avoiding cooking, learning new things that she sucks at, listening to loud music on long drives, watching people find their voice while raging against their silencing, collaborating in community-based initiatives, and finding the beautiful cracks in all of us that let the light pour in.
