Shackola Symons

Shackola Symons

Therapist

Virtual • New York


Sometimes the greatest lessons and purpose derives from our pain. Pain can be a transformative experience if we allow it to be. I have dedicated my life to helping others navigate their pain and dark moments.


Since 2011, I have provided assistance to individuals (children, adolescents, adults), couples and families on issues across the spectrum of human existence. I have worked in substance abuse treatment, psycho-social oncology where patients and families have been faced with their own mortality and loss, government agencies serving under-served populations, education and private practice.


Whether it's managing life's every day stressors, coping with negative emotions, experiences and interactions, dealing with a mental health diagnosis, unpacking previous traumas or simply just having someone unbiased and objective to talk to. I am here to provide support. We all have a story to tell within us. We just need the right circumstances and environment for it to be uncovered. What's your story?
