About Shawn Shiraz, MS, LPC
Since 2010, I have served in different areas of the mental health field. Much of my clinical work has focused on the treatment of adolescents and young adults, although I regularly work with adults as well.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Music and a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Palm Beach Atlantic University in West Palm Beach, FL. I have worked in clinical settings including addiction treatment centers, universities, and nonprofit agencies.
I believe therapy is about healing and growth, but it’s also about discovery. Good quality therapy takes you to a deeper understanding of how you see yourself and the world. Once that is revealed, you can really begin to heal and grow.
My mission is to walk with people through their pain, in love, and empower them to explore, discover, and create their own life change.
I offer afternoon and evening appointments for clients needing to come in after work or school. 1:00pm – 9:00pm weekdays
