Hello!!! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in Mississippi and a National Certified Counselor with over 17 years of experience providing individual, family, and group counseling. I have experience working with clients from ages 3 to adulthood with a multitude of presenting issues such as developmental delays, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, loss, anger management, life changes, self-esteem and identity issues, as well as relationship and family issues. I have also worked in many different counseling settings and have experience working with culturally diverse clients.
My counseling style is warm and empathetic, influenced by Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My approach combines client-centered therapy and structured family therapy with goal-oriented and solution-focused therapy to highlight strengths and help clients become the best version of themselves authentically. I believe everyone is unique and deserves a counseling experience tailored to them, where they can work through life’s challenges. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you in a safe, nonjudgmental, compassionate, and nurturing space to help you achieve your identified goals to become the best version of yourself with dignity and respect
It takes courage to reach out, and I am here to provide the safe space you need to be vulnerable and begin to heal.

Written on Oct 06, 2022 after therapy with Shannon for 1 year and 4 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, and career difficulties
I've been working with Shannon for over a year now. Shannon has helped me so much with learning to navigate depression, the consequences and symptoms of it, I truly don't know where to begin. She is able to connect with you on a human level, while guiding you to unknot your thoughts/feelings so you process things more logically. She has given me practical steps to manage all different situations, guidance to process things better mentally and emotionally, advice and tools now to to learn to build back my confidence and make better decisions in order to create long lasting habits. I feel I am getting there. I truly know that I wouldn't have been able to overcome dozens of situations if it wasnt for the work Ive been doing with Shannon. I truly appreciate what she does and I always talk about betterhelp because of my work with her! So internally grateful I got matched with her <3

She’s awesome!
Written on Aug 21, 2021 after therapy with Shannon for 2 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety
Shannon seems like a lovely person and most importantly I feel incredibly comfortable talking to her. We are just getting started but I have already found our chats very useful. I look forward to how we continue in the future.
To get the most out of betterhelp, I would like to use the messaging more in between our weekly call, but our time difference doesn't match up well. Still I will continue to use the journalling section and as we move forward hope to get more advice or goals for the days I struggle.
Thanks, Shannon!

Shannon is very generous and understanding. She understands even getting to therapy is hard and doesn’t put you down for that. She is extremely insightful and thought evoking even after just one session. She truly cares and it shows by the mid week messages. She is truly here to listen and is extremely not judgemental.
