At Shades of You, we value your unique and nuanced experiences as an individual.
Shaywanna Harris-Pierre, Ph.D, LPC, CFT-I™
As we navigate life, we have experiences that shape how we view ourselves and others. Sometimes these experiences and our circumstances become overwhelming and impact our ability to connect and be fully present in our relationships. As a therapist trained in family systems, marriage and family therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma, and financial therapy, I am passionate about helping my clients improve their relationships with themselves, their loved ones, and money. I support and empower my individual, couple, and family clients by embarking with them on a journey of discovery to explore how small changes in patterns of thought and behaviors may be helpful in alleviating them from their feelings of being "stuck", overwhelmed, or unfulfilled in their relationships.
I provide trauma focused therapy to individuals, couples, and families experiencing chronic stress. I also provide financial therapy to individuals who have experienced financial trauma, couples navigating finances in relationships, and families navigating the intergenerational wealth transmission process. I am especially passionate about the experiences of racially marginalized people as it relates to beliefs about money and money management. Therefore, it is especially important for me to validate and honor my clients’ experiences with race-based trauma as well. I approach my clients by acknowledging the differences that exist between us, knowing my client is the expert on their life and experiences.
