About Shannon
Shannon Mott is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. She responds directly to practical problems and emotional pain so parents and adults can find steadier ground. Shannon uses clear, down-to-earth language and focuses on what will make daily life feel safer and more manageable.
She blends approaches that emphasize attachment, acceptance, and present-focused change. That means she pays attention to how people connect with others, what matters most to them, and the thoughts and behaviors that get in the way.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to match each person’s readiness for change. Shannon has nine years of clinical experience as an LCSW in Louisiana. Her background includes work with trauma, mood concerns, addictions, and complicated family dynamics.
She also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care history, chronic illness, and caregiving stress.

Those approaches are used to reduce upsetting symptoms, improve relationships, and build more reliable coping skills.
She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Therapy is available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Shannon often blends Attachment-Based Therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address emotional patterns and core values. Attachment-focused work looks at how early and current relationships shape emotional responses and safety in close connections. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without letting them derail meaningful action, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.She also uses client-centered techniques to keep the focus on each person's goals and experience, creating a collaborative process to find the best fit. Shannon will review what feels most helpful, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on the client’s needs and preferences rather than insisting on a single method.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits for this work. Video calls let the therapist and client read facial expressions and tone, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework prompts, or pacing therapy across a busy week. Offering multiple formats makes it easier to keep continuity of care and to fit sessions into real life schedules.
