About Shannon
Shannon Chavis is a Florida LMHC with 21 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. He also addresses communication problems, workplace issues, guilt and shame, forgiveness, impulsivity, life purpose, and self-love.
Shannon uses a practical, conversational style in sessions. He listens to what is most pressing and helps people sort through emotions and options. He adapts the conversation and plan to the concerns a person brings, rather than delivering a fixed script.
Sessions focus on clear steps you can try between meetings. That may include noticing thought patterns, practicing different ways to respond in relationships, or experimenting with small behavior changes. He helps people weigh choices and practice skills that relate to their daily life and responsibilities.
When grief or loss is the issue, Shannon helps people name what they are feeling and find manageable ways to carry on day to day. When guilt or shame is present he helps people look at what feeds those feelings and what might help reduce their hold on daily life.
For workplace stress and life transitions he aims for pragmatic strategies to manage overwhelm and keep routine tasks on track. For people wrestling with self-esteem or life purpose he offers a mix of reflection and short-term experiments to try out different ways of thinking and acting.
Approaches used and how they fit online
Shannon works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on thoughts, behavior, and emotion. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, test those thoughts, and try alternative responses to reduce anxiety and low mood. This method is useful for stress, anxiety, and depression.Another approach emphasizes small behavior changes and real-world practice. It focuses on building routines, trying new responses in relationships, and breaking down larger problems into manageable steps. That approach is often used for workplace issues, impulsivity, and day-to-day coping after loss.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shannon will collaborate with each person to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences, and the problem they brought. He adapts techniques as progress and feedback point to what helps most.
