About Shannon
Shannon Long is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with 11 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, and family and parenting challenges including blended family issues.
She focuses on practical steps people can take to manage everyday stress and strong emotions. Shannon uses straightforward cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses client-centered work to listen, reflect, and build on what is already working for a person.
Her background includes work across settings and a range of presenting problems, such as trauma, bipolar disorder, ADHD, eating and sensory-related issues, and gender identity concerns. She has provided individual and group services and has experience with people who have navigated adoption, attachment, and caregiver stress.
Sessions typically mix skill practice and conversation. Clients can expect to talk through recent situations, try concrete coping strategies, and adjust plans between meetings. The emphasis is on usable tools for daily life rather than long lectures.
Shannon welcomes people who need help managing life changes, repairing routines after a separation, or finding steadier ways to parent and co-parent. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients; confirm current session options before booking.
Approaches online and what they involve
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the client’s concerns guide the work; it helps when someone needs to process feelings about family changes or parenting decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete skills for anxiety, mood changes, and managing anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and reactivity and can be useful for daily coping during transitions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That collaborative decision is revisited as needs change and progress is reviewed together.
Confirm current online session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel for an appointment. It also lets people use breathing exercises, thought records, and practical homework between meetings so changes can be tried in everyday life.
