Emotionally focused therapy helps slow down that pattern between yourself and your partner(s) to increase understanding, and also increase the feeling of connection and safety. I work with couples that suffer from emotional disconnection, frequent or escalated fighting, avoidance, grief, addictive behaviors, infidelity, and difficulties being physically intimate. Couples therapy can allow partners to have important conversations about how they envision their relationship while gaining more clarity about each one's individual and relational needs. I am a Certified Sex Therapist (AASECT CST) and currently belong to the Portland EFT community. I have extensive training in sex therapy and offer sex therapy to both individuals and couples. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1562621251097-NJK0E71ZHNUTFXO1D0FP/shannon-gander-addiction-therapist ShannonGanderTherapist/home - Addiction Thinking about making changes in your life and wondering what those changes might look like? We can explore what it would mean for you to live without the derailing behaviors and substances in your life. There is more than one way to make lasting change and any plan created will be made with you and be unique to you as an individual. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563412126549-8HP3H9VIBVSDXFLJCJPX/image-asset.jpeg ShannonGanderTherapist/home - Individual You may be seeking support for any number of reasons such as depression, workplace stress, grief and loss, shame, trauma, anxiety, loneliness, clarity around transitions, addictions, or any number of other issues that befall us as perfectly imperfect human beings. Every human being deserves a safe, confidential place they can go to where they needn’t feel judged, rushed, or pressured in any way. I aim for my office to be such a sanctuary that can hold the hopes and aspirations for your life. Individual counseling is always based upon your unique goals, needs, and challenges. I believe therapy can help you heal, grow, and learn new ways of thinking and feeling about yourself and the world. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1562620794978-0RQG3WIRNG0VKDWL2JB3/image-asset.jpeg ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1562631589382-VHCBM8RKT7V9YRN8P61J/image-asset.jpeg ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563409967371-R0YBQTQMDGFPUIDHE8IN/image-asset.jpeg ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563426898680-CT1YPR4V0OF5XO735UC8/fabric-of-squares-1920x1080.png ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1564027968477-IT7XRHUBWTKJMQ5G51U6/fabric-of-squares-1920x1080.png ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1564429984690-WG6ZLJ20E8MFUMKDCZTU/image-asset.jpeg ShannonGanderTherapist/home https://www.shannongandertherapist.com/professional-disclosure-statement daily 0.75 2025-05-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563431393261-ISUO7A6PC5K5EYTJT4DQ/medium.png Professional Disclosure Statement https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563576485654-J1NAGQI5WUJKAK199KW4/image-asset.jpeg Professional Disclosure Statement https://www.shannongandertherapist.com/informed-consent daily 0.75 2019-07-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563431393261-ISUO7A6PC5K5EYTJT4DQ/medium.png Informed Consent https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563576444201-ST50C45LJKM4XPZ1R04L/image-asset.jpeg Informed Consent https://www.shannongandertherapist.com/shannon-gander-qualifications daily 0.75 2025-05-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563823660687-ZJK9T6DV0RJNWOSAVLOI/image-asset.jpeg Qualifications https://www.shannongandertherapist.com/contact-shannon-gander-licensed-therapist daily 0.75 2023-08-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1562631451254-DEM9L1FJP645KK2IYEWN/image-asset.jpeg Contact Me https://www.shannongandertherapist.com/about-shannon-gander daily 0.75 2025-05-22 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1561746741281-ZLF7U456MCEHUSMH5MCJ/shannon-gander-therapist-oregon-city My Practice https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cde0a56dab8a20001509be6/1563581298021-YTQAHF2WD0H2RNJ70XZB/Dr.-Sue-Johnson-EFT-Founder My Practice - “People feel listened to, heard.
