Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Professional Recommendation
I am a licensed professional counselor in Springfield, MO who has known Shannon professionally for many years. I have referred several clients to her and have always known her to be caring, compassionate, and welcoming. She values learning and continues to further her education, looking for better ways to help her clients learn and grow. If you are seeking a therapist, I highly recommend calling Shannon to see if she is the right fit for you!

I cannot say enough about Shannon. She has helped me navigate some of the most difficult times and situations in my life. I first visited her years ago, and she is extremely empathetic and competent. She has helped several of my children as well. I rarely leave reviews, but I just had to leave this one because I want others to benefit from Shannon’s services as much as I have! Thank you, Shannon, for always being one of the greatest supports in my corner! I appreciate you so much!!

This therapist is the most unprofessional 'professional' I have ever encountered, I have had plumbers who could provide more reliable counseling. Unfortunately I had to learn this while she was supposed to be counseling my 16 yr old. Her reliability was SO bad I think that she herself should be in some kind of counseling. After struggling to make it work for 4 months, through her constant cancelations and rescheduling.. she contacted us the DAY OF an appointment to inform us that she would not be taking insurance from that day on. Honestly THE WORST PROFESSONAL OF ANY KIND I have ever encountered.
