Shawna Damiani

Whether you're navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, major life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, teletherapy makes it easier than ever to prioritize your mental health without the added stress of commuting or rearranging your schedule.

Online therapy is just as effective as in-person sessions, and many clients find the flexibility actually helps them show up more consistently and openly.
If you're ready to take the first step, I'd love to connect. Reach out today to schedule a free consultation and learn more about how online therapy can work for you.

As a Psychiatric-Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner, my passion is helping people feel seen, supported, and understood during some of the most challenging moments of their lives. I believe that healing happens through connection, honesty, and safe space, and my goal is to offer care that feels grounded, collaborative, and genuinely human. I am so grateful to work with people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, substance use disorders, bipolar disorder, psychosis, and many other mental health struggles.

My background includes street medicine, community health, and international humanitarian work, all of which have shaped my respect for the resilience and complexity of the human experience.
I strive to understand your story—not just your symptoms—and to partner with you in creating a plan that aligns with your needs, values, and goals. To heal, we need to feel safe, heard, and empowered. You don’t have to navigate this alone. I’m here to walk with you, support you, and help you rediscover hope, strength, and stability on your path forward.
