Savanna Cannon, LICSW

Savanna Cannon is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who helps people facing stress and anxiety find steadier ground. She focuses on practical steps clients can use right away to manage overwhelming moments. Her style aims to make it easier to talk about hard feelings and to try new ways of coping. She uses straightforward conversation to learn what matters most to each person. Sessions look at daily thoughts, behaviors, and small changes that can have big effects over time. She also supports people dealing with grief, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and major life changes. With eight years of experience, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to shape sessions. That means she helps clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns and build motivation for change through clear, practical steps. She encourages short-term goals alongside deeper personal work. She also addresses compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, and topics like forgiveness, guilt, and self-love. Hospice and end-of-life counseling are included in her areas of focus. Savanna aims to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can share thoughts and feelings. The first step is often simply naming what feels hard. From there she supports clients as they try tools, track progress, and adjust the plan to fit real life.

How CBT and Motivational Interviewing Guide Online Work

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people notice patterns in their thoughts and behaviors and then test small changes. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and mood concerns by teaching practical tools to change unhelpful thinking and daily routines. Motivational Interviewing focuses on building motivation and resolving mixed feelings about change. It uses open conversation to help people find their own reasons to try new behaviors and stay engaged with goals. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process can include trying a tool for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most. Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also gives people flexibility to schedule around work, caregiving, or treatment routines. Licensed professionals use these approaches to help clients practice skills between sessions and track progress over time.
