The
Borrowed Nervous System
Counselling
I work with people whose nervous systems have been doing more than their share: parents of neurodivergent kids, people living with chronic or misunderstood conditions, anyone who's had to be the regulated one for too long.
 The Borrowed Nervous System Counselling
My name is Shannon McAllister. I am a student counsellor at Orca Institute, currently completing my practicum under clinical supervision to ensure the highest care. I offer a friendly, accessible space using a person-centred and trauma-informed lens. My approach is both parts-informed and creative, helping you explore your inner world with compassion. Whether you are navigating neurodivergence or life transitions, I am here to support your unique journey.
