About Shannon

Shannon Davis is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who uses practical, goal-focused approaches to help people facing life transitions and emotional strain. She draws on five years of clinical experience and a Master of Science in Counseling to guide conversations that lead to clearer choices and manageable steps forward.

Shannon primarily uses cognitive behavioral approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. She also integrates mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to create short-term plans and coping tools. Sessions emphasize simple strategies that can be practiced between meetings.

Her work covers a broad set of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress, grief, relationship and family issues, and midlife changes. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, parenting strain, ADHD, career crossroads, and identity and body-image questions. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family challenges, and issues related to adoption and foster care.

Shannon aims to make the first session a consultation where goals and a plan are discussed. She explains what the next few sessions may involve and offers practical first steps clients can try. Her approach is straightforward and collaborative, with attention to what the person wants to change.

People who choose her practice often want focused, hands-on work rather than open-ended therapy. Shannon invites those ready to set goals and try new strategies to begin the process of identifying clearer next steps and more sustainable routines.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Shannon often uses cognitive behavioral strategies that help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to change how they feel. This approach is useful for concerns like anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking problems into small, doable steps.

She also draws on mindfulness techniques to teach present-moment awareness and simple breathing or attention practices. Those tools can reduce rumination and improve emotional regulation. Motivational interviewing is another element she uses to help people clarify their values and strengthen motivation for change, which can be helpful during career shifts, parenting challenges, or midlife transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily routines, then suggest methods to try. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as progress is assessed.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful because they can fit therapy into a lunch break, reduce travel time, or choose a meeting style that matches their comfort with video or audio. The focus is on making therapy accessible and practical for everyday life while working toward clear goals.
