About Shannon
Shannon Lloyd is an MS LPC - a Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, relationship concerns, grief, parenting, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. She also supports people facing family problems, identity and LGBT concerns, and multicultural challenges.
Shannon draws on several practical methods in session. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going. Client-Centered Therapy guides the pace and focus, letting the person lead what matters most. Emotionally-Focused ideas help when relationship patterns and attachment concerns are causing pain.
In sessions she focuses on clear goals and doable steps. Conversations tend to include identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing new ways of responding, and looking at the story someone tells about themselves. Sessions can address family of origin issues, commitment or control concerns, and experiences of prejudice or discrimination.
Her background includes work across a range of counseling settings and with culturally diverse clients. That experience informs how she thinks about life changes, abandonment or adoption and foster care issues, and problems rooted in early attachment. She has also worked with obsessive-compulsive symptoms and disruptive mood presentations.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Shannon commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing concrete skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and OCD-type concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the person’s priorities, letting clients set the pace and topics in sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to figure out which methods suit a person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean mixing brief skill practice with more open, reflective conversation over several sessions.
