About Shannon
Shannon Lloyd is a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, licensed in Mississippi with 16 years of clinical experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, family concerns, depression, anger, ADHD, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, and self-esteem challenges.
She uses straightforward, person-focused work. Sessions include talk, practical steps, and ways to notice patterns that get in the way. Shannon draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered ideas to help people name problems and try different responses in daily life.
Her background includes work in a range of counseling settings and with culturally diverse clients. That experience informs how she understands family of origin issues, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and abandonment difficulties, and multicultural stressors. She also addresses issues such as obsessive-compulsive behaviors, DMDD-related mood challenges, and struggles with commitment or control.
In sessions she combines short-term goals with discussion of deeper patterns when useful. That can mean learning specific coping skills, practicing mindful attention to feelings, or retelling difficult experiences to lessen their hold. The tone is practical: identify what’s most urgent, try a change, then notice what shifts.
People who contact her complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Shannon sees clients in Mississippi and accepts international clients; sessions are offered in English.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Client-centered work focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and choose next steps that make sense in their daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage anger, or change unhelpful habits. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and how they shape relationships and personal reactions; it can be useful when strong feelings drive repeated conflict or withdrawal.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to try methods that match their goals and preferences, adapting techniques as progress is made. The choice of approach can evolve as new challenges or priorities emerge.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list formats. In general, online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy home life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and letting people join from different locations. Many clients find it easier to practice new skills between sessions when therapy fits into their everyday routine. Licensed professionals can discuss what will work best for scheduling and session length during the first meeting.
