About Shannon
She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into therapy. Shannon offers a calm, supportive presence while encouraging clients to try things that can reduce stress and anger. She emphasizes small, achievable changes rather than big, sudden fixes.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions, and Solution-Focused Therapy, which centers on building workable solutions. Sessions tend to focus on identifying a clear goal and testing strategies between meetings.
Shannon has seven years of experience as an LCSW in North Carolina. That background informs a practical, goal-oriented style that aims to make daily life more manageable. She aims to help clients feel more confident in handling tough moments.
If someone is considering therapy, Shannon asks them to think about what they want to change first. She then works with each person to set straightforward goals and try specific steps that fit their life and responsibilities.

How Shannon uses practical therapies online
Shannon often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and the behaviors that follow. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and anger by breaking concerns into small, manageable pieces.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy, an approach that focuses on clear goals and what works already. This method helps people identify usable strengths and test small steps that move them closer to their goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon collaborates with each person to choose which methods to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they set simple, measurable goals and adjust methods as progress is made.
