Shannon Lloyd , LPC

Shannon Lloyd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with over 16 years of experience delivering individual, family, and group counseling. She has worked with clients ranging from age 3 through adulthood, addressing a broad array of concerns including developmental delays, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, anger management, life transitions, self-esteem and identity questions, as well as relationship and family difficulties.

With experience across multiple counseling settings, Shannon has supported people from diverse cultural backgrounds and tailors her work to reflect each person’s uniqueness. Her therapeutic presence is warm and empathic, and her practice is informed by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy - a practical approach that helps clients explore how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings. She integrates client-centered principles and structured family strategies with goal-oriented and solution-focused techniques to highlight individual strengths and promote authentic growth.

Shannon aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental, and nurturing space where people can safely explore challenges and pursue their goals. She emphasizes collaboration and dignity in treatment, helping clients develop practical tools and insights to move toward being the best version of themselves. Reaching out for support can be difficult, and Shannon offers steady guidance for those ready to begin that work.

Approaches and online care tailored to your needs

Shannon combines several evidence-informed approaches to support clients in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and genuine listening, giving clients space to explore their thoughts and values so they can move toward self-directed growth and improved self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and building practical strategies to manage symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and stress related to life changes. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people and families understand emotional responses and attachment needs, making it useful for relationship concerns, family dynamics, and healing from relational wounds.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process. Shannon works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, continue care during transitions, and connect with a therapist from different locations, including international clients, while maintaining a consistent therapeutic relationship.
