About Shannon
Shannon Lloyd is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with 16 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, grief, relationship concerns, ADHD, and self-esteem struggles. Shannon sees clients with a wide range of life changes and identity questions, including LGBT issues and multicultural concerns.
Shannon uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of her approaches alongside Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. In sessions she focuses on emotions and attachment patterns that are hard to name. She also uses mindfulness and narrative work when these fit a person’s goals.
Her style centers on listening first and helping people identify clear goals. Conversations are practical and aimed at changing patterns that keep someone stuck. She brings structured tools from CBT for thinking and behavior, and uses client-centered techniques to follow what matters most to the person in the room.
Shannon’s experience includes work across different counseling settings and with culturally diverse clients. That background informs how she frames family and parenting concerns, adoption and foster care topics, and attachment-related struggles. She has also worked with issues such as obsession and compulsion, anger, abandonment, and forgiveness.
People who choose her often want straightforward sessions that combine emotional focus with concrete skills. The first meetings typically clarify goals and establish small steps to practice between sessions. Shannon accepts international clients and conducts work in English.
How her approaches translate to online work
Shannon commonly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help identify and name strong emotions and attachment patterns, which can clarify recurring relationship or closeness issues. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to the person in session, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to introduce practical exercises for changing thoughts and behaviors.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to decide which combination of methods fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration guides whether sessions focus more on emotional processing, skill building, or narrative exploration.
