Shannon Green, LMFT
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
San Francisco Bay Area CA
Everyone is welcome. Shannon works internationally and does most of her work over the phone and through Zoom. She meets you where you are at and tailors each session to your individual needs at that time. Shannon creates a warm welcoming container for all parts of your self to show up where you are at that moment. She is focused on working hard and going deep; yet brings a light hearted approach and often humor if appropriate. She shows up and brings her whole self and invites you to do the same, not just the “injured parts.” For many years Shannon has gotten the feedback that she goes deeper and gets to the root of the issues faster than most, yet somehow makes therapy an enjoyable healing journey.
Shannon works internationally with clients. With 21 years as a Marriage & Family Therapist and 26 years of spiritual practice and development Shannon will help you gain awareness, get in touch with your pure organic true essence; provide practical guidance and hands on tools to improve your quality of life. Shannon has worked in school systems, non profit family & children agencies, inpatient psych ward, with military families & Veterans, and private practice with clients from diverse backgrounds of ages, socioeconomics, cultures & religions. She specializes in children, loss and grief and trauma.
Shannon began her own exploration of psychedelics in her late teens and early 20's. She found it helpful to expand the mind, explore altered states of consciousness, and it allowed for her deep shifts in perception. Little did she realize at that time it was helping heal from PTSD as a child. With her deep intuition she has always questioned how things work and payed attention to the subtle shifts in energy and emotions. Exploration of psychedelics opened up a deep dive into spiritual practices and theories for Shannon. She has an extensive tool bag to utilize from. Everything from therapy, Qi gong, yoga, meditation, energy work, hypnosis, family systems, Emotinal Freedom technique (similar to EMDR), holistic health and much more. She was nominated as a natural helper in high school and ended up being the safe place/person to come to in college for those that may have had a little too much too fast or difficulty integrating and navigating their experience. She had always wanted to be a therapist since her first psychology class in high school. Holding a safe nonjudgemental space for others too heal an explore is at her core. In adulthood she revisited psychedelic entheogen(s) and realized the vast opportunities that this can present when combined with a therapeutic approach. It is her honor and pleasure to be part of this psychedelic renaissance as well as the opportunity to work with you.

Shannon has a deep appreciation, respect and understanding of the profound impact a psychedelic experience can have on the spirit, mind and body. Although this can be profoundly helpful it is not for everyone. Safety an harm reduction is always a priority. Often my clients come to me after a journey or trying to do psychedelic healing themselves and find themselves struggling to process the information that has come up or how to integrate the new profound awareness into their daily lives. This is why the focus on the intention and pre counseling work can be an integral part of the psychedelic journey.
