About Shannon
Shannon Mannino is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, and ADHD.

Shannon aims to make therapy a calm, understandable process for people who feel overwhelmed or stuck.
She draws from approaches such as cognitive behavioral methods and mindfulness to help people notice unhelpful patterns and test small changes.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize clear goals, real-world skills, and steps that fit day-to-day life. Shannon also weaves in hope-focused practices to build strengths and positive habits. In sessions, she works collaboratively to identify what matters most and to set manageable goals.
People leave with coping strategies for panic, impulsivity, social anxiety, and workplace stress. Communication problems, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation are common topics she helps people talk through. Shannon has eight years of counseling experience and holds the LPC credential, Licensed Professional Counselor, in Pennsylvania.
Her background includes techniques for improving self-awareness, emotion regulation, and problem-solving. She aims to help each person find an approach that fits their life and goals. Therapy can include short-term problem-focused work or longer-term personal growth.
Sessions move at a person’s pace and focus on skills that can be used right away. People interested in starting are invited to complete a brief questionnaire to find a good match and schedule sessions according to availability.
Approaches that translate well to online sessions
Shannon commonly uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors. This involves identifying patterns, trying new responses, and tracking what works to reduce anxiety, depression, or impulsive reactions. Mindfulness-based stress reduction focuses on simple breathing and awareness exercises that can reduce reactivity and improve concentration; these practices are easy to teach and practice between sessions. Positive psychology and hope-focused practices aim to build strengths and small daily habits that improve mood and motivation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help the client decide what methods fit best based on the person's needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and interactive skill teaching. Phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, quick tools, or ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
