About Shannon
Shannon Mott is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Louisiana. She focuses on helping people manage anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and big life changes. Many people seek her out when stress or past trauma gets in the way of daily life.
Shannon uses straightforward, collaborative work. She listens for each person's strengths and values, then helps build practical ways to cope. Sessions often include learning new skills, noticing unhelpful patterns, and trying small changes that fit into real life.
Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-based and emotionally-focused ideas shape how she looks at relationships and trust. She adapts techniques to match what a person needs in the moment rather than using a one-size-fits-all plan.
Shannon has nine years of clinical experience and works with a wide variety of concerns. Her practice includes adoption and foster care among other focus areas listed on her profile. She aims to offer culturally responsive and inclusive care for diverse backgrounds.
People who choose Shannon can expect a calm, respectful space to talk through problems and try new coping strategies. The emphasis is on workable steps, not labels, and on helping people find more balance and connection in everyday life.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking actions that match those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and coping during major life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems, and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences, and will adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients collaborate on goals and on the pace of change.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow check-ins from different locations. Some formats also let people choose shorter or more frequent meetings when that helps with momentum or coping between appointments.
