Shane is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) specializing in CBT, person-centered therapy and solutions-focused approaches. He holds a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from The College of William and Mary in Virginia and previously worked in community mental health in Vermont for four years.

​Shane is passionate about working with members of marginalized populations. He meets each client where they are and is committed to creating a safe space where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and aspirations.

“My approach is rooted in empathy, active listening, and collaboration. I celebrate
diversity and honor an individual's unique experiences.”

“I was born and raised in East Texas. I first came to Vermont in 2000 when the civil union laws were passed, and I was finally able to move here with my partner from Oklahoma in 2014. I enjoy hiking, kayaking and continuing to explore this state that I’m fortunate to now call home.”
