Center for Emotional Health
Regan Sheppard, M.A.
My goal in counseling is to create a healing space for individuals and couples that encourage personal growth and empowerment.
I am committed to helping you reconnect with the strengths you already possess, to discover who you truly are, and to live in the moment authentically. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University in Seattle; and received my undergraduate degree from Western Washington University in psychology and geology.
"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase,
just take the first step." - Martin Luther King, Jr.
I am married with two children; a 11-year-old and a 2-year-old.
I enjoy yoga, hiking and gardening.
FAQ's:
How much does marriage therapy cost?
Each 50-minute session costs $80.00
What if my partner doesn't want to come?
Come anyway! I work from a systemic perspective, meaning that I believe one person can change a system or pattern in a relationship. Besides, quite often the other partner starts attending to see what they are missing.
What will happen during the first visit?
We will spend some time getting to know each other. I will explain what to expect from a therapist, and give a little bit of information about me. You can talk about what brought you in, and give some background information about yourself.
If therapy with me feels like a good fit (we'll also talk about how to be good consumers of therapy), we will schedule our next appointment, and I will send you home with some paperwork.
This initial 30-minute consultation is free! I feel that it is every therapists ethical duty to provide a free initial consultation to make sure that the client feels safe & comfortable without causing undue economic hardship.
How do I schedule an appointment?
I have day & evening office hours available. Please call or email to schedule an appointment.
