Shannon Wilkerson MA, LPC

Face to Face Sessions and Telehealth Services in the Prairieville Office

I believe that everyone could use some empowerment, empathy, and guidance to navigate this life and learn to find meaning in every aspect of it. There is no ‘normal’. Your life should be led in accordance with your values and the things that give you purpose—‘your normal’. To me, you are the expert on your life and experiences, and I am a partner in helping you identify and cope with difficulties that this life can bring.
