Dr. Shano Palovich Rodgers

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I believe that the success of therapy is largely dependent on the relationship I have with my clients. CS Lewis once said, “To love at all is to be vulnerable.” I think that vulnerability is a precious gift that is not to be taken lightly. It’s very important that my clients feel safe to express that vulnerability in a non-judgmental environment that inspires trust. I work with clients according to their self-identified, strengths, needs and goals. Together we craft a path toward insight with compassion and motivation at your pace.
I have over 20 years of experience working in the field of child welfare including foster and adoptive care. I also worked in private practice and helped clients with depression, anxiety, childhood trauma, secondary trauma, parenting challenges, and workplace pressure. I have a MA in Clinical Psychology and a PhD in Organizational Psychology. I use a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative and Solution-Focused therapies, Psychodynamic Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I am a certified trainer in the Nurtured Heart Approach (for parenting intense children and youth) and am also a certified life coach.
I look forward to partnering with you on your journey.

Is Online Therapy the Right Fit for Your Needs?

One of the main benefits is flexibility – clients can choose the communication format that fits their routines and comfort level, whether that is a video call, a phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to maintain continuity of care while managing busy schedules.
