Shannon Zettl is a psychologist based in Paddington, Brisbane, at 17 Guthrie Street, Paddington QLD 4064.
Shannon works with people who are dealing with everyday stress and the kinds of challenges that can build up over time. Counselling sessions can help when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or like your usual coping tools aren’t working as well as they used to.
In sessions, Shannon uses behavioural therapy and cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) to help you notice patterns that can keep things going. At times, this looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. Other times, it’s more about finding practical ways to handle triggers and make daily life feel more manageable.
Stress management is a big part of the work. This can include learning stress management techniques that fit into real life, not just during a session. You might also get support to set small goals, build healthier routines, and change what you do when things start to feel too much.
Behavioural therapy can be useful for adults, teens, and families, especially when there are changes you want to make at home or in day-to-day life. Shannon also offers family therapy, which can help when communication breaks down or when different people in the household see the situation differently.
Shannon focuses on a calm, steady approach. Sessions are structured enough to give you a clear direction, but they’re still grounded and human. You can expect the work to be practical, with ideas you can try between appointments.
Booking with a psychologist can feel like a big step. If you’re not sure where to start, you can come in with what’s happening right now—stress, worries, and strain—and Shannon will help work out a sensible next step.
If you’re looking for counselling that covers stress, behaviour change, and family support in Paddington, Shannon Zettl is ready to help.
