Shannon Mott, LCSW

Shannon Mott is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing midlife transitions, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She writes plainly and listens closely to what matters to each person. Her approach is practical and collaborative, aimed at helping people feel steadier and more in control of their day-to-day life.

Shannon draws on nine years of clinical experience in Louisiana to support people through trauma recovery, grief, and changes at work or home. She pays attention to cultural background and identity when talking through difficult feelings. She also helps with issues like sleep problems, parenting stress, attention concerns, and addictive behaviors.

Sessions focus on building self-understanding and small habits that add up. Techniques may include behavior-focused work and exploring how values shape choices. Shannon also uses therapies that center relationships and emotions to help people reconnect with themselves and others.

She aims to create a respectful space where clients set their own pace. Shannon works with people from diverse backgrounds and supports those navigating LGBT concerns, adoption and foster care issues, aging questions, and chronic health challenges.

Her practice blends straightforward tools with deeper conversations about identity and attachment. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes, so clients can manage stress, rebuild trust, and move toward goals that matter to them.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters most and take small steps toward those values. It can be useful for coping with midlife transitions, anxiety, and decisions about work or relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns through practical exercises and skills practice. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress management. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses, which can help with intimacy, grief, and trust issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. That collaboration helps tailor sessions so they feel relevant and workable for everyday life.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when you need them. It also lets people use therapy while living in a different state or country, since international clients are accepted. Discuss format details with the therapist when you schedule so sessions match your routine and goals.
