About Shannon
Shannon believes clients know their own stories best and builds sessions around each person’s strengths. She uses clear, conversational techniques rather than jargon. Expect straightforward talk, goal-setting, and tools to try between meetings. The approach is collaborative and paced to what feels doable for each person.
Her work draws on client-centered methods that focus on the person’s perspective. She also uses cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and mindfulness practices to build present-moment coping skills. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help with setting realistic steps and sustaining change.
Shannon brings about 11 years of experience to her practice as an LPC. She frames challenges like chronic pain, body image, impulsivity, or career stress as problems that can be addressed through practical strategies and sustained effort. She encourages curiosity about what has worked before and what might be different going forward.
Sessions are aimed at making day-to-day life more manageable. Shannon supports people who want to build confidence, handle change, and find clearer direction. She invites prospective clients to consider small, achievable goals and to take the next step when they feel ready.
How Shannon Uses Therapeutic Approaches Online
Shannon integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in simple, practical ways. Client-centered work focuses on hearing the person's own perspective and using that as the basis for change, helping people feel understood and clearer about their goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at patterns of thinking and behavior, helping people try small experiments to shift unhelpful thoughts and responses.She also draws on mindfulness skills to help people manage stress and stay present. Mindfulness techniques are short practices that teach attention to the moment and can reduce reactivity during stressful situations. Together these approaches aim to build small, practical habits that improve day-to-day coping.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Shannon collaborates with each person to see what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She helps set clear steps, tests what works, and adjusts the plan as progress happens.
