About Shannon

Shannon Mott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Louisiana with nine years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, and life transitions. Shannon also supports those coping with addictions, grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem struggles, career stress, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.

She uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people manage day-to-day problems. Sessions focus on clear goals and concrete steps clients can use between meetings. Shannon draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot thinking patterns, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and action, and Attachment-Based work to understand relationship patterns.

Her work pays attention to social and cultural context. Shannon addresses adoption and foster care concerns, aging and caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and issues around kink and alternative sexual cultures. She also supports people dealing with attachment issues, autism spectrum concerns, and co-occurring conditions.

Sessions emphasize straightforward problem solving, emotionally-focused work around close relationships, and building coping skills for everyday life. Shannon helps people make changes at a pace that fits their situation. She accepts international clients and conducts work in English.

Practical steps for getting started include completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session through the online options. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions that match those values. It can help when worry, avoidance, or uncertainty make day-to-day life feel limited. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress related to work or relationships. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early and current relationship patterns affect how people connect, respond to conflict, and recover from hurt; it can be especially helpful for intimacy and repeated relationship struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Shannon will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit your goals and preferences, and she may combine techniques as needs change. The plan can shift based on progress and what feels useful in session.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can use different online arrangements to meet practical needs, and Shannon will discuss which setup fits your routines and objectives when you get started.
