Shannon Mott , LCSW

Shannon Mott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who focuses on helping people work through depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma recovery, and major life transitions. She centers her work on each person’s unique experiences and strengths, offering culturally responsive and inclusive care that honors diverse backgrounds and identities.

Her practice concentrates on guiding clients through complex emotional experiences, whether those challenges take the form of social anxiety, workplace stress, family conflict, or questions of personal identity. Shannon brings particular attention to multicultural concerns, women's issues, and the needs of young adults, tailoring interventions to the individual rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

Using collaborative, evidence-based techniques, she supports clients as they develop greater self-understanding, strengthen resilience, and make sustainable changes at a comfortable pace. Her therapeutic stance is grounded in empathy, respect, and professional guidance, with the aim of walking alongside clients as they navigate healing and growth.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Shannon Mott integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed steps toward a meaningful life while learning to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them - it is useful for anxiety, avoidance, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships to improve current connection and emotional regulation, which can be helpful for relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns, and attachment issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing new skills to reduce symptoms and improve functioning, often helping with depression, anxiety, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shannon works collaboratively with clients to identify which strategies fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjusts methods over time so therapy feels personalized and effective. Licensed professionals and therapists often blend techniques to match each person’s situation.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to access consistent care from different locations and to fit sessions into busy schedules. This flexibility can support ongoing momentum in treatment and make it simpler to practice new skills between sessions.
