ABOUT

Hi there! I'm Shanna. 

Everyone is on a journey of possibilities. Some people stumble through life without realizing they are on a pathway that can be changed.  They follow along on what seems to be a pre-set destination, maybe one chosen or even demanded by their family and society or formed by the traumas of life.  This is what happened to me many years ago, until I learned to choose a different path, and started a different journey.  My journey began in pain and humiliation. But that is not where it is now, and most importantly, is not where it is headed. 

I know a lot about TRANSFORMATION, about changing the problems of life into potential and growth. I BELIEVE in Post-Traumatic GROWTH! I had been diagnosed with PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) many times, due to many accumulated traumas. These traumas were "given" to me through the actions of others.  But in the end, each trauma became my own to manage and learn from. I learned that no one is coming to rescue me, no one will swoop down and fix the issues that I had been given. SO, I learned to rescue myself.

About SHANNA WARNER

Originally, she thought her life-calling was as an attorney.  She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications and English, and then attended law school. While working on her Juris Doctorate, life conspired to end her aspiring law career. Several cumulative traumatic episodes necessitated a withdrawal from her chosen doctoral program.  While putting her law career on hold,  she turned towards therapy and meditation.  She credits the traumatic episodes in her life with putting her on a spiritual path that is dedicated to helping others rise above their problems in life.  

After college and before taking a break to raise her son, who was born with a life-threatening medical condition, she worked in radio and as a newspaper reporter.  Currently,  she and her husband are the owners and publishers of Natural Awakenings magazine in Oklahoma.  She is also a published author, blogger and podcaster. 

For her Master's Degree, she studied the world's religions and spiritual pathways.  For her Doctoral Degree, she studied Transpersonal Counseling. She can help clients by offering and utilizing a large number of complementary and alternative modalities, including: hypnosis, Reiki, dream work, personality transformation, psychoneuroimmunology and many, many more. During class work for her PhD, she was drawn to study and get certified in hypnosis. Her dissertation was dedicated to that topic.  Warner had first learned of hypnosis during law school, when it had been discounted as a legal defense in a criminal case.  It is not a coincidence to her that life has come full circle, with hypnosis being her chosen practice modality now. 

As a trained spiritual counselor she works  with clients from ALL paths and religions., and even those who are agnostic or atheist.
