In-Person and Virtual Therapy and Ketamine Assisted Therapy Sessions
“Consciousness includes everything and judges nothing.”

Go Beneath the Pattern
Shannon is a Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner specializing in integrative psychotherapy. She is the founder of Floresta, a consciousness-informed mental health practice and retreat company designed to support deep psychological work. Shannon has facilitated thousands of ketamine-assisted therapy sessions and brings over 20 years of experience across psychotherapy, coaching, meditation, somatic work, and integrative modalities.
Her work is rooted in a depth-oriented, trauma-informed approach that weaves together Internal Family Systems (IFS) as parts-based therapy, somatic awareness, and an intuitive and transpersonal understanding of the relational and energetic dynamics that shape transformational work. She supports clients in moving into a more direct relationship with themselves, working with the body, the psyche, and the deeper layers of consciousness to access meaningful and lasting change.
Therapy Sessions
Therapy with Shannon is an intentional space to slow down, listen more closely, and engage with what is present beneath the surface.
Rather than focusing on fixing, this work honors the intelligence of your inner world, allowing what has been held or avoided to come into awareness.
Depression, anxiety, and trauma are approached as meaningful experiences that carry information and the potential for deeper understanding. Through a trauma-informed, IFS, and awareness-based lens, all aspects of your experience are welcome.
Shannon also offers support for entity-induced, and other anomalous experiences through a clinical and parapsychological lens.
Some experiences do not fit neatly within conventional psychological language. People in psychedelic, contemplative, trauma-healing, and other non-ordinary states may encounter internal figures, presences, voices, energies, archetypal images, or other experiences that may be supported through a consciousness-based mental health model.
Within IFS, transpersonal psychology, Jungian psychology, depth psychology, and parapsychological traditions, these phenomena have been understood through many different lenses, including parts, dissociative processes, symbolic material, archetypal experience, spiritual emergence, and unattached burdens.
Floresta creates space for experiences that conventional models of mind may not fully explain, while maintaining psychological safety, clinical responsibility, and an openness to the complexity of human consciousness.
Couples Therapy Sessions
Therapy with Shannon is available for couples who are ready to engage more deeply with the patterns shaping their lives, relationships, intimacy, and sense of self.
In couples and relationship sessions, Shannon supports partners in slowing down reactive cycles, listening beneath the surface, and exploring the places where conflict, disconnection, desire, protection, and longing intersect. This work is not about deciding who is right or wrong. It is about asking more honest questions, finding the in-between spaces, and bringing awareness to the blind spots that keep repeating.
Drawing from her experience as a Certified Sex Therapist, Board-Certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, and consciousness-informed facilitator, Shannon integrates somatic awareness, transpersonal inquiry, parts-based work, and conflict resolution techniques that honor both the self and the relationship.
Couples are supported in learning how to listen without immediately defending, speak without self-abandoning, and work with conflict as information rather than failure. Sessions may explore communication, intimacy, sexuality, nervous system patterns, emotional safety, resentment, repair, and the deeper unconscious dynamics that shape how partners relate.
This work invites each person to become more present, more honest, and more available for connection without losing themselves in the process.
