The longest journey is from the head to the heart! Hello! My name is Shannan. Let us first pause here to honor that you have taken the most important step (and sometimes the hardest)- the first step- on a life changing journey toward living your best life. I also want to assure you that there is no situation too difficult to be bettered and no unhappiness too great to be lessened…and you are not alone!!! As your counselor, I meet you wherever you may be on your path today with empathy and nonjudgmental respect. We begin by pausing to just BE present together as we build our confidential therapeutic relationship on safety, trust, collaboration, and authenticity. Together we create an evolving treatment plan that is uniquely tailored to fit your individual healing needs. As your journey of self-discovery unfolds, we carefully approach trauma and difficult emotions by continually building on strengths, empowerment, and resiliency. As connectivity of your head and heart leads you deeper in self-awareness, transformative healing space is created naturally allowing your authentic self to emerge in a new life based on solution, hope, serenity, and holistic wellness. Thank you for taking the time to read this information. Now that you have found me along your way, if you feel we might be the right fit for each other, I would be honored to walk alongside you during your healing journey! Shannan Loree Matthews, MA, LPCC, NCC is the business owner and psychotherapist of Dahlia Street Counseling, PLLC.

She connects with compassion, empathy, and hope to those who are experiencing crisis, trauma, loss, grief, and life transitions. She is passionate about psycho-education and teaches holistic wellness, self-care, spirituality, meditation, mindfulness, somatic grounding, and positive psychology. As a depth-oriented therapist Shannan is fluent in shadow, inner child, dream, and grief work but she believes there is not a one-size-fits-all theory for healing and excels at creatively implementing a variety of techniques and interventions reflective of the unique needs of each individual client.
