About Shannon
Shannon Oberndorf is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and grief. She draws on 20 years of clinical experience to support clients working through trauma, self-esteem struggles, addictions, sleep problems, parenting strain, and career transitions.
Her approach begins with a warm, nonjudgmental conversation so people can say what they need to say. She builds a trusting rapport that makes it easier to tackle hard topics like shame, guilt, and post-traumatic stress. Sessions focus on practical skills and insight that people can use between meetings.
Shannon blends several methods to match each person’s situation. She uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness tools support managing anxiety and building self-compassion.
Clients can expect straightforward goal-setting and small steps toward change. Shannon often works on communication patterns, boundary-setting, and coping strategies for burnout or caregiver stress. She also addresses blended family concerns, codependency, and first responder issues when relevant.
