Shana Hisaw, M.S., LPC-S

Hi. I know that coming to counseling is often a hard choice for people, so it's important to make sure it is a good fit.

I received my Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Angelo State University and my Bachelor’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from the University of Texas. I am married and have 4 children. I relocated to Corpus Christi to be near the water in 2013. I love the outdoors and the Island is our home!  I have a wide variety of experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings, including group therapy and individual therapy as a therapist, director and executive. My goal is to provide a relaxing, casual environment and a personalized treatment plan. I have been licensed and practicing counseling since 2007.

I have several specialties that I enjoy working with in counseling:

• Ages 4-12 on Behavioral issues, ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, and Autism. I used play therapy mixed with expressive art techniques and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. For children who have a history of abuse or significant trauma, I use Trauma Focused CBT.
• Ages 17 & up to treat Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Autism, OCD, and Trauma.  I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for depression and anxiety, exposure therapy for OCD, and Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma.  I incorporate essential oils into my sessions utilizing a psychotherapy technique called Aroma Freedom.  I also have a nutritional program for those seeking alternatives to medicine for mental health. I incorporate wellness into my sessions.
• Premarital and Marital Counseling
• Life Coaching is a 3 times per month commitment. Program length varies.  

Shana sees ages 4-12 and 17 & up. Shana is available Mon to Thurs 9 to 3.
