Shele Lillis
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC-S, CFRC
Taking the step to begin therapy is an act of profound courage, and I deeply respect the vulnerability it requires. I want you to know that the space we create together will be a sanctuary—one defined by unwavering trust, safety, and non-judgment. My intention is for you to feel truly seen and heard from our very first interaction. I am motivated by the desire to support clients through personal reflection and insight; to empower clients as they walk through their life journey. I am passionate about creating a strong connection to support the therapeutic alliance needed to achieve healing, growth, or, any other therapeutic goal.
With 15+ years of experience, I am skilled in working with individuals, couples, young adults, veterans, and the first responder community. Shele has worked in all treatment levels, and currently private practice. She enjoys all areas of mental health and specializes in treating PTSD/trauma, resiliency training, couples counseling, and eating disorders.

Shawna Damiani
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Hi, I'm Shawna. I'm really glad you're here — and I know that finding the right therapist can feel like a lot. My hope is that by the time you finish reading this, you'll have a sense of who I am and whether we might be a good fit.
I work with adults who are carrying things that feel heavy — whether that's the weight of past trauma, the complexity of relationships that keep hitting the same walls, or the experience of moving through a world that wasn't quite designed for the way your brain works. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, relationship challenges, and supporting adults with ADHD and autism who are often figuring out a lot about themselves for the first time.
A lot of my clients come to me feeling like something is wrong with them. My job — and honestly, my passion — is helping people see that they've been responding to hard things in the most human ways possible. Healing isn't about fixing yourself. It's about understanding yourself.
My approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. I'm not going to sit silently and nod — I show up as a real person in the room with you. Therapy with me tends to feel like an honest, sometimes even humorous conversation, grounded in real tools and genuine care.
If any of this resonates, I'd love to hear from you. Reaching out is the hardest part — and you've already started.

McKinney is one of the fastest-growing cities in the United States, a rapidly expanding Dallas-area suburb in Collin County whose population has surged with families and professionals drawn by strong schools, lower housing costs than central Dallas, and a robust job market. The pace of growth itself creates mental health demand—new residents navigating relocation stress, parents managing the pressures of achievement-oriented suburban culture, and young professionals balancing demanding careers with family life are among the most common therapy clientele. Medical City McKinney and a growing network of private practices serve the community, and the proximity to Dallas's much larger therapy market gives residents additional options via telehealth or a short commute. Common therapy concerns include anxiety, life transitions, relationship and parenting stress, and the particular strains of raising a family in one of America's most rapidly transforming suburban landscapes.
