Shannon Wright
About Shannon
Their own wordsShannon Wright is a Nurse Practitioner Psychotherapist, registered with the College of Nurses of Ontario. She brings compassion, openness and patience to create a safe, non-judgemental space for people to explore, heal and grow.
Shannon’s training and education is quite unique in that she has degrees in two different professions with different focuses, even though they are both in the mental health field.
Shannon completed her first Master’s degree in science while concurrently completing her Nurse Practitioner education and diploma. For Shannon, a highlight of this learning was the concept of neuroplasticity -- the brain's remarkable ability to adapt and change throughout life, offering opportunities for learning, recovery, and adaptation to various challenges. Her second master’s degree was in Counselling Psychology where she learned more about intersectionality and mental health which can impact an individual's mental health experiences and outcomes.
Over the 20 + years of her practice, and her continuous training, Shannon has blended these two therapeutic focuses to develop a broad view of humanity and mental health. Shannon recognizes that everyone experiences a range of emotions and thoughts, and that mental well-being is essential for a fulfilling life. In her practice, Shannon emphasizes the interconnectedness of individual mental health with social, cultural, and environmental factors. Implementing this approach to therapy, Shannon supports individuals as they work towards a state of well-being where they begin living intentionally and aligning actions with their values and aspirations.
Shannon works with various populations (including 2SLGBTQI+) experiencing: anxiety, depression, ADHD, life transitions, social & career difficulties, relationships & interpersonal issues, trauma, PTSD, grief & loss and supports in managing complex medical conditions and/or chronic illness.
Shannon uses several therapeutic approaches, some of which include: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing.
Shannon is committed to engaging in cultural humility and is dedicated to anti-oppressive and anti-racist practices to ensure all individuals have equal access to resources and opportunities.
