About Shannon

Shannon White is an Alabama Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and major life changes. She also lists life purpose, coaching, and related concerns such as attachment issues and isolation as areas she addresses.

Shannon uses conversational, practical sessions that center on the person's priorities. She treats each person as the expert on their own story and helps people notice strengths they already have. Sessions focus on usable strategies rather than long lectures. People can expect clear, actionable steps to try between meetings.

Her approach draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness. Those methods are used to identify patterns, shift unhelpful thinking, and develop calmer responses to stress. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help when deciding next steps or making a change in work or relationships.

Shannon has experience across a broad range of concerns beyond anxiety and career, including body image, chronic illness and disability, communication problems, and feelings of guilt or shame. She also lists autism and intellectual disability among issues she has supported, and works with challenges linked to impulsivity and control issues.

Sessions are conducted in English and operate under standard counseling procedures in Alabama. Cost varies by location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and scheduling step are required before the first session.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Shannon commonly uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques. Client-centered work focuses on listening and reflecting so people can clarify what matters to them. CBT looks at patterns of thought and behavior and introduces practical exercises to test new ways of thinking. Mindfulness practices bring attention to the present moment and help reduce reactivity to stress.

Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences, adjusting methods as needed rather than sticking to a single plan.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Talk with her during the matching process about what session length and rhythm would work best for your schedule.
