About Greg

Greg Shannon is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience working across settings from independent practice to inpatient and residential care.

Background and approach

He focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting, career challenges, and compassion fatigue. He also offers coaching to help people who are doing okay sharpen performance in areas like athletics, career growth, and personal development.

His counseling style emphasizes warmth, empathy, and a supportive atmosphere that encourages honest conversation without judgment. Sessions typically combine practical tools and strength-based techniques so clients can try new strategies and track whether those changes are helping.

Greg draws on interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods to tailor work to each person’s needs. Accountability and consistent feedback are important parts of his process, helping clients notice progress and adjust goals when needed.

He frames the therapeutic relationship as collaborative and empowering, welcoming people who are ready to take steps toward greater well-being and more satisfying daily functioning.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life



Greg blends cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to address symptoms and day-to-day functioning. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. DBT offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful when managing intense emotions, relationship challenges, or ongoing mood instability.

Choosing the most helpful approach is a collaborative process. He works with clients to explore goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past, then adapts tools from evidence-informed approaches to match those needs. The therapeutic relationship is framed as partnership, with regular feedback and accountability to see what is producing progress.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain continuity when life gets in the way. These formats allow for flexible scheduling, more consistent check-ins, and multiple ways to practice skills between sessions, supporting steady progress regardless of location.
