What should your client know about you?

Hello and welcome! My name is Shannon Merritt and I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT). I am based in Southern California and offer telehealth services to clients across the state. My expertise includes supporting individuals through life transitions, managing depression and anxiety, coping with loss, and addressing various mental health challenges. I am also passionate about helping people recover from addiction and/or trauma.

What is your approach to therapy?

I draw from various modalities and tailor my approach to each individual and their specific needs. I aim to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel at ease, can build resilience, and ultimately thrive. My communication style is straightforward, calm, and approachable. I offer clear and honest feedback in order to foster clients' wellbeing while developing hope for their future.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions. Clients can expect to develop valuable insight and gain the tools needed to make meaningful changes in their lives.

Andrew Soluna

Andrew Soluna

Therapist

Virtual • California


I work with people navigating their evolving identity, self-worth, relationships, life purpose, and psychedelic integration. Often high-functioning but privately struggling, or simply needing trusted support in a safe space to tend to the soul and grow. The foundation of my work as a clinician is psychodynamic psychotherapy. But the therapeutic space is not bound by clinical measurements or a rigid psychology. Far beyond clinical diagnosis, therapy is the path towards wholeness in Self, vitality in daily life and relationships, and creative expression of the soul. I am a perpetual student of depth psychology and completing certification as a Jungian analyst.
