About Shannon
Shannon Mott is an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with nine years of experience based in Louisiana. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and other life changes. Shannon also supports those coping with addiction, grief, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, and career strain.
Her approach centers on learning what matters to each person and using that as a guide for practical steps forward. She combines cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance-focused skills to reduce unhelpful patterns and increase actions that fit a client's values. Attachment-based ideas help when relationship patterns and closeness feel difficult.
In sessions Shannon practices client-centered methods, listening for what the person most needs to address next and adjusting the pace accordingly. She uses emotionally-focused tools when feelings around relationships are a main concern. These methods aim to build clearer self-understanding and more reliable ways of handling stress.
Shannon has worked with people navigating social anxiety and phobias, workplace pressures, parenting strains, and identity questions. She pays attention to cultural background and the different ways people experience stress and loss. The focus is on practical skills and clearer choices rather than long theoretical explanations.
People who choose her often want direct techniques they can use between sessions, alongside space to talk through painful experiences. Her practice accepts international clients and conducts work in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details.
How Shannon’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that matter. It can be useful for persistent anxiety and decisions about relationships and career. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and testing practical changes; it often helps with social anxiety, sleep struggles, and mood shifts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship experiences shape reactions to closeness and rejection, and that can be helpful when intimacy or relationship patterns are central.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to pick approaches that match their goals, preferences, and everyday constraints. Sessions adjust over time based on what is helping and what feels feasible for the client.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some formats also let a person choose whether to use video or audio, which can help with managing being seen or heard during conversations about social anxiety and relationship issues.
