Shannon Deneen

Shannon Deneen serves as the Practice Manager at Full Circle Grief Center. Shannon earned both her Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Social Work from Skidmore College and a Master of Social Work (M.S.W) from University of Denver. Before joining the Full Circle team, she worked in outpatient counseling, community-based mental health care, and substance misuse services. These experiences continue to inform her trauma-informed and systems-aware work. 

Shannon is passionate about helping others feel seen, supported and grounded as they navigate the world. In her role, Shannon strives to cultivate a warm, affirming environment from the moment someone walks through the door.

When she’s not greeting clients at the front desk, you can find Shannon curled up with her cat, Beau, reading a good book, adventuring in the mountains, and cooking up a storm in the kitchen. She is always looking for food and book recommendations!
