Shannon specializes in clinical psychology and health psychology

Clinical psychologists integrate the science of psychology into the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of complex human problems and mental health disorders.

Clinical psychologists work with clients to assess and address the spectrum of mental, emotional, behavioural, and situational factors involved in issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs), body dysmorphia, eating disorders, hoarding, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), schizophrenia or psychosis, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Clinical psychologists might also train future psychologists, teach in an academic setting, or perform research to develop new treatment methods.

Although both counselling and clinical psychologists practice treatment or therapy, counselling psychologists tend to focus on a client’s general well-being, whereas clinical psychologists often work with clients who are experiencing more severe or complex mental health problems.

Health psychologists use the science of psychology to promote health and help people cope with illness and disability.

Health psychologists work with clients to examine how biological, social, emotional, behavioural, and situational factors influence their health and illness. They promote healthy behaviour changes, facilitate health-related decisions, support adjustment to disability, and improve chronic illness coping strategies.

Health psychologists deal with health-related issues such as weight management, smoking cessation, stress management, and nutrition. They help people cope with conditions such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), multiple sclerosis (MS), fibromyalgia, myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS), and chronic pain.
