Shevaun’s Profile:

I love LOVE. The kind that steps up and blazes its way through, measured not by words spoken, but action taken. The kind that responds instantly, audaciously, soulfully to those close to us but even sweeter, to perfect strangers. The kind that bridges any perceived divide in our shared humanity.

Second to loving LOVE, I love timing. Circumstance. Non-coincidences. When things happen, how they happen, the explosion of well laid plans, and the surprise and delight of surrender.

But more than anything, I LIVE to witness the exquisite moment of the return to self. For it is in this suspended state when fear is swallowed whole, when we choose to love ourselves with the same ferocity we love others, when our slow burning ember of potential ignites into wildfire. It is here, we begin our work with open-hearted hope for another day, and a different world.

Anchored in the knowledge that you are the author of your life, and insatiably curious about the narrative you’ve written, I’m committed to uncovering alongside you what past experiences continue to influence how you think, feel, and act today.

Awakening new awareness requires intentionality and authenticity from us both. Honoured to show up humble, vulnerable, honest, and human, I will not invite you to go anywhere I have not gone myself. Together, we can befriend adversity, the golden portal to: self-discovery, healing, inner strength, exponential growth, and abundant joy.

Shevaun graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with a Master of Arts in Spiritual Care and Psychotherapy, from Queen’s University with a Bachelor of Education, and from Wilfrid Laurier University with a Bachelor of Arts in English. Shevaun is honoured to journey alongside clients experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, and grief and loss.
