About Shannon
Shannon Chavis is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. He has 21 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem struggles. He emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate interactions and encourages people who are nervous about starting therapy.
He focuses on practical help for coping with life changes and managing emotions that get in the way of daily functioning. Shannon adapts conversations and plans to fit each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. He talks through real-world steps people can take between sessions to build resilience and confidence.
In sessions he addresses workplace issues and challenges that affect wellbeing at work. He also helps people with communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, impulsivity, life purpose, and growing self-love. The work centers on small, doable changes that add up over time.
Shannon draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and aims to match the approach to each person’s needs. He meets people where they are and moves at a pace they can tolerate. His goal is to help clients feel more capable of facing stress and life transitions.
Shannon asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire to begin the matching process. From there he helps schedule sessions that fit into people’s lives and tailors the plan as progress is made.
How evidence-based techniques translate to online care
Shannon works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and clear steps. One common approach is brief skills work that teaches stress and anxiety management tools like breathing, grounding, and planning. These are practical strategies people can try between sessions to reduce overwhelm and increase daily functioning.Another frequently used method involves structured problem-solving for work and life changes. This helps break big issues into smaller steps, improves decision making, and supports clearer communication at work. That kind of approach often suits people dealing with workplace stress, motivation, or life transitions.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. Shannon collaborates with each person to pick techniques that match their goals, comfort level, and what has or hasn’t worked before. He adjusts the plan as progress is made so sessions stay relevant and helpful.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and maintain continuity during life changes. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or let people use audio-only options if video is difficult. Ask about the available formats when you start the matching process.
