Insight Compass Counseling
If your nervous system feels wired for survival instead of connection...
​
If relationships feel overwhelming, confusing, or even unsafe...
​
Please know, you're not broken.
​
Those patterns often come from early wounds, and they make perfect sense in context.
​
The good news is, those patterns can shift.

“Shawna has been helping me for the past two months. She has been very professional yet caring, attentive and has managed to help me to remove my fears and limiting beliefs.
I feel transformed, energized and above all I AM HAPPY WITH MYSELF.
Thanks to Shawna, the monsters I had haunting me disappeared and I feel in love with life again.
THANK YOU SHAWNA - you are amazing and I loved every session we had.”
-R.D.
“I've been in counseling for 3 months, but already after the first month I started to feel ease and joy. Shawna provided me with plenty of useful advice and practical tips to try in everyday. She also suggested other resources that might be helpful.
Personally, the main outcome of the therapy is better communication with others, being aware of my personality traits and accepting them, learning to perceive situations differently and changing the way I react to things I cannot control.”
