My name is Shaylynn Raymond and I am currently engaging in the practicum portion of my Master’s in Counselling, I am practicing under the supervision of Amber Liponoga, LCSW. I am passionate about becoming a fully-licensed counsellor, and am happy to be able to offer my services free during this portion of my degree. I am located in New Brunswick, Canada. I have been a misophonia advocate since 2015, have written two books on misophonia, and I personally suffer from misophonia. I am the founder of Misophonia International and the director of The International Misophonia Foundation. The Misophonia Show is meant to showcase misophonia stories, research, and provide Q&A for clinicians, researchers, families, loved ones, and people with misophonia!
