Shayla Keenan with Odin at Harbor Counseling

Shayla and Odin, her canine assistant

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor here in Texas. I received my undergraduate degree from Bryant University and moved on to receive my masters from Bridgewater State University. My past work has predominantly been with children, teens, and young adults with a variety of reasons for seeking counseling. I sought to open Harbor Counseling in order to create a small business that connects clients directly to the clinician and streamlines care. I work with the client to build a meaningful relationship and safe environment in order to best support the client in the counseling process. I incorporate Odin in session, so if you have a severe allergy or fear of dogs, I may not be the best fit for you. There have been increasing studies on the benefits of animals in creating a calming environment, as well as helping decrease depression/anxiety, and facilitate learning or practice of social skills to name a few!
