Shannon Lloyd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, ADHD, relationship strain, and identity concerns. She offers a calm, warm presence that aims to make it easier to talk about difficult feelings and everyday struggles.
Her style is straightforward and compassionate, with an emphasis on practical steps clients can use between sessions. With 16 years of experience, Shannon draws on several therapy methods to fit each person’s needs.
Background and approach
She uses client-centered approaches to listen and build trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas guide work on connection and emotional understanding in relationships.
Shannon also uses mindfulness and narrative ideas to help people notice patterns and tell a clearer story about who they are. She has worked in varied counseling settings and with culturally diverse people, which informs how she tailors conversations. Her aim is to meet clients where they are and build a plan that feels realistic.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small, concrete changes that add up over time. Shannon emphasizes strengths and practical coping tools to manage symptoms and daily demands. She welcomes international clients and works in English, offering several online session formats to fit different needs.
Reaching out can feel hard, and Shannon aims to make that first step straightforward. She asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a time that fits their routine.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Shannon often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening and building trust so clients can speak openly about what matters most to them. This approach helps with stress, identity concerns, and navigating life changes by focusing on the person’s own goals and pace.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and coping skills because it gives specific strategies to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shannon works with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring. She adjusts methods over time so the work remains relevant and useful.
Online therapy offers a range of ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and deeper conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat offers a quick check-in, and messaging supports short updates or ongoing reflection. These options increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
