About Shannon

Shannon White is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Alabama who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She also supports work on self esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Shannon encourages clients who want more motivation and confidence to take practical steps forward.

She believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into the work. Sessions focus on using those strengths to face challenges and build new habits. Shannon aims to make the process feel collaborative and respectful rather than prescriptive.

Her approach draws on a mix of conversational and skills-based methods. Shannon may use ideas from cognitive behavioral work to notice unhelpful thoughts, and solution-focused moves to set small, achievable goals. Mindfulness practices are offered to help manage stress in the moment.

Shannon has 11 years of experience and brings that background to everyday concerns. She supports people dealing with attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and issues around forgiveness, guilt, or shame. She also works with people navigating divorce or separation and those questioning life purpose.

Sessions are conducted in English and reflect practical problem-solving alongside personal reflection. Shannon emphasizes steady progress, not quick fixes, and helps clients find steps that fit their daily lives.

How her approaches work online

Shannon often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness in her work. Cognitive behavioral techniques look at thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going and use small experiments to change them. Mindfulness practices teach brief attention and breathing exercises that can reduce reactivity and ease worry.

She also uses client-centered ideas, which means she listens first and follows each person's priorities. Finding the right approach is a joint process: the therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. This keeps the work practical and tailored to daily life.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, save travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and support consistent progress from wherever you are located in the state. Licensed professionals can adapt conversational and skills-based methods to remote sessions so people can practice tools between meetings and track small, steady changes.
