Shannon Kossick
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I believe vulnerability is essential in the therapeutic space, and I’d like to share a bit about myself to foster transparency and understanding as we work together. My background and experiences inform my perspectives and approach to therapy, and I want you to have a clear sense of who I am to share in a vulnerable space together.
I am a cisgender, heterosexual, White woman of Irish and Prussian heritage who was brought up in a middle-class family in the suburbs. I am also a Returned Peace Corps Volunteer and former Certified Public Accountant, have lived in four countries on three continents, am married to a counselor, and have two beloved dogs, one of which weighs over 100 pounds. I grew up in the Catholic Church, but my personal spiritual practice now draws inspiration primarily from Buddhist traditions.
I utilize IFS in my work with clients. Imagine your mind like a family. You have different “parts” with different jobs, like protectors or worriers. Internal Family Systems helps you understand these parts, connect with your calm, wise “Self,” and create inner harmony. It’s about healing, not fixing.
I offer EMDR as an intervention. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a therapy that helps your brain process and heal from traumatic or distressing experiences. We use bilateral stimulation, like eye movements or tapping, while you focus on the memory. This helps your brain reprocess the memory, reducing its emotional charge and allowing you to feel more peaceful and resilient.
I use ACT in my practice. Acceptance & Commitment Therapy helps you build a rich and meaningful life by focusing on what truly matters to you. Instead of fighting your thoughts and feelings, you learn to accept them and commit to taking action in line with your values. It’s about psychological flexibility: being present, choosing your direction, and taking action, even when it’s difficult.
I incorporate MBIs into therapy. Mindfulness-based interventions teach you to pay attention to the present moment without judgment, using practices like meditation. These practices can help you become more aware of your thoughts and feelings, allowing you to manage stress, anxiety, and other challenges more effectively. By cultivating this awareness, you can improve emotional regulation and overall well-being.

Jason Hutchings
Psychologist, PsyD
My initial interest in psychotherapy was sparked by studies in history, music, visual art, and the major world religions. These seemingly disparate interests helped me understand individual narratives in the context of our larger collective history. We all have a sense of who we are and how the world works based on years of lived experience. By deepening the understanding of our personal narrative we prepare the way for a sense of meaning and purpose that can impact our lives and those around us in profound ways.
