We’re deconstructing therapy

Because stress sucks

ABOUT MOUNT NORTH

Mount North is deconstructing therapy. It was created by advanced therapists who are experienced in traditional therapy and life. We know what works and what doesn’t. Whether it’s growth, healing or both, we will help you find direction.

MENTAL HEALTH

Not everyone needs therapy. Not everyone needs to sit on a leather couch for an hour every week. That’s why we are deconstructing therapy. We know what works and what just gets in the way. We have taken therapy, broken it into useful pieces and we are making each piece available to you. To help you learn, to help you grow and to help you meet your goals.

“I cannot say enough about the importance of Shannon’s role in my family’s mental wellbeing! Let’s be real, 2020 was HARD for all of us, but it brought special challenges for us as a family. My teenage daughter suffers with anxiety, as well as my husband who also has PTSD. Shannon has been nothing short of a godsend in teaching us how to prevent, plus manage issues as they arise. She has handled a multi-family member patient relationship like a true professional. As a non-patient, she was quick to help me understand and give me the tools I needed. My husband’s PTSD is almost non-existent since using the NeurOptimal system. After more than a decade of it intruding in our lives, we feel such a sense of relief and contentment. Thank you, Shannon, from the bottom of our hearts!”

“I could not have asked for a better experience. My daughter has struggled with inattention and hyperactivity as well as impulsivity and boundaries, and I did a lot of research into neurofeedback. When I found Central PA Neurofeedback on Google, I called and talked with Shannon. She was so understanding and helpful over the phone. Her rates were half the going rate anywhere else. My daughter was immediately at ease with Shannon and developed a relationship right away. We have been going for years, and the Neurofeedback, personal therapy/counseling, and other modalities have been so helpful for my daughter. We love Shannon and would never go anywhere else!”
