She also supports those dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness, and body image struggles. Shannon has nine years of clinical experience and holds an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She is based in Louisiana and provides services in English, including to international clients when appropriate.
Her background includes working with diverse cultural experiences and parenting-related concerns. Practical options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand emotions and relationship patterns that keep them stuck. Online sessions let clients bring real relationship concerns and emotional moments into therapy for close examination, especially when working on attachment and intimacy issues.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings. In remote sessions this can include noting what matters, planning small steps, and using exercises between appointments to build momentum.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current reactions and relationships. Together the therapist and client identify familiar interaction patterns and practice new ways of relating that feel safer and more connected.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and she adapts techniques as progress is made. That collaborative process helps create a treatment path that is practical and personalized.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins and ongoing support between sessions.
