0Professional yes, and also very warm creating a safe friendly environment where real progress can be made. Having been in and out of counseling for 45 years, I had made little or no progress. When I started going to Shannon Lerach I made progress unknown in my life. She knows how to engage and talk to and with, not talk at you. All the degrees in the world do not make a good therapist. It's the caring, empathy and understanding that makes a great therapist. For the first time in 45 years, I am doing great!
I have been in counseling on and off for 45 years. It was not until I started going to Shannon Learch that I started to see and feel real progress in my life. Her knowledge and practice of EMDR has changed my life for the better, much better. I don't put comments like this out there lightly. After years of little or no progress, I am very thankful to have found Shannon and to have made giant leaps in my overall well being finally realizing peace and serenity in my life.

Most recently, Shannon spent a year dedicating her time and energy working in Liberia, a war-torn country that is still recovering from a 14-year civil war that ended in 2003, providing trauma-focused therapy to women who had experienced sexual violence, children, and former child soldiers and ex-combatants. In 2012, Shannon returned to her hometown of Solana Beach to live and open up a private practice, where she works as a trauma-specialist working with children, adolescents, adults and families utilizing therapeutic approaches including Child-Centered Play Therapy, Attachment-based therapies, family-systems theory, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDRIA Certified), Mindfulness and parental coaching.
