Rooted in the belief that better relationships lead to better families and more responsive communities, Cornelius Sheehan, LCSW, leads the charge in transforming lives through compassionate and effective therapy. As the Clinical Director of Emotional & Relationship Health Counseling Associates in Reno, Sheehan has cultivated a practice that stands at the forefront of attachment-based relationship counseling.

He recognizes that each person who walks through his door is the expert on their own life, and he approaches every session with openness, curiosity, and humility. This client-centered philosophy ensures that therapy is a collaborative process, with Sheehan serving as a skilled partner in his clients' journey towards healing and growth.
