Shannon Aeschliman, LPC, NCC (She/her)

Staff Therapist

Hello! My name is Shannon Aeschliman. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Illinois. I graduated with my Masters of Arts in Counseling Psychology from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a concentration in trauma and crisis intervention.

I have a background in working in a hospital setting and higher levels of care such as partial hospitalization programs and intensive outpatient programs. In addition to focusing on trauma, I have experience seeing clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic, phobias, and interpersonal problems. My primary modality for treatment is based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence and interact with one another. I also have extensive training in suicide prevention and I am Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training- ASIST certified. Additionally, I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mental Health First Aid.

I have experience working individually with adults and the aging population as well as leading group therapy. My approach to counseling is to collaborate with my clients throughout their journey. I believe each client is unique and I strive to provide the best treatment for each person based on their specific needs.
