The Village Perspective
Shanae's qualities of empathy, compassion, and authenticity make her a clinician who genuinely cares about others' well-being. Her belief in the power of perseverance despite adversity reflects her positive outlook on life. Shanae acknowledges the strong emphasis on individualism in society, which can lead to feelings of isolation and a lack of communal support during difficult times. She desires to facilitate a space where individuals are met with understanding, empathy, and encouragement, to better cope with adversity. As a clinician, she listens with empathy, cultivates trust, encourages open communication, offers practical support and collaboration as a partner in your mental health journey.
