excellent
Dr. McCormick is insightful and genuinely caring. She is a knowledgeable, out-of the box thinker with a holistic approach. I feel both heard and inspired every time that I see her. Highly recommend her!
Dr. McCormick has worked tirelessly to manage my weird side effects, while treating debilitating depression, and caring for me as a a whole person, always addressing the full picture.
Dr. McCormick has been an outstanding asset to my mental health.
Amazing, is an understatement. A very " non - clinical " , welcoming atmosphere upon arrival. Dr.McCormick conveys a very sincere, trusting aura that allows me to be open and honest about myself, and one does not have the feeling of being judged or " pre- diagnosed " . I can definitely, without reservation, recommend seeing Dr.McCormick for helping navigate this not so smooth road of life we travel.
Just from my first appointment -- Dr. McCormick is an incredible doctor! Very holisitic in nature and compassionate. Extremely smart and thorough. i look forward to working with Dr. McCormick more in upcoming sessions.
Shannon is truly amazing! She is wonderful to talk to, i can tell her something that i humiliated about and she instantly puts all fears at ease! Her way of making people comfortable is someone I've never experienced! Highly highly reccomend and am so thankful for her.

Absolute treasure to find and attentive to an individual's needs with beneficial advice.
Today was my first ever experience with therapy. Even in my first session I felt heard. I'm eager to see how sessions continue to allow me to have tools and strategies to cope with life.
It has been easy to make my appointment & access forms. I had no problems getting on zoom & my appointment started promptly at the scheduled time. I found my therapist easy to talk to about issues that I have been having. This is a good sign for the first visit.
Shannon is very attentive to my concerns and often asks me to share some experiences that seem to affect me.
Very caring and helpful
Best decision I ever made
Shannon has been excellent and very helpful/supportive. For the first time in a long while I feel I am making progress on the changes and improvements I would like to make as a direct result of Shannon’s guidance.
Shannon is incredible! She allows me to have a safe and open discussion, wherever that might take us! Very thankful.
I wholeheartedly love the safe space Shannon provides me. I am allowed to be my most vulnerable authentic self and she shows up for me without judgment, rather with compassion and understanding. I am provided tools to support me in my transition to a healthy mental space, sharing how the tools are working for me or when I am struggling. I wish everyone had the opportunity to be fully human without judgment and simultaneously be equipped with strategies to help them grow to a healthy and happy state of being.
As always I appreciate everything that you do
She’s very kind and patient!
I have been impressed with the care I have received and would highly recommend the Rein Center to anyone looking for quality, caring counseling.
Dr. McCormick has been the a life saver for me! She takes the time and listens and has so much knowledge! I’m thankful to have found her!
Great visit. Good advice given.
Dr. McCormick is very conscientious
A little trouble with scheduling but its improving
Shannon Breitenstein is an amazing therapist. She asks the right questions that get me thinking beyond what I have. She makes me feel heard and empowered. She listens, reflects, and verbalizes her own understanding with her descriptive analogies and visualizations that help me understand my situation more. I've been to other therapists, but she is one of the best. I highly recommend her!
