About Shannon
Shannon Bartlett is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people navigate parenting stress, relationship strain, and family tensions. She focuses on practical steps parents can take when anger, anxiety, or life changes feel overwhelming. Shannon speaks English and practices from North Carolina as an LCSW with seven years of experience.
She believes people know their own stories and brings a strengths-based perspective to sessions. Shannon encourages clear, doable goals and small changes that add up over time.
Background and approach
Sessions often start with what matters most to the client and build from there. Her work includes support for mood concerns such as depression, bipolar symptoms, and anxiety. She also addresses grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, career concerns, and the effects of ADHD on daily life.
Conversations are focused on problem-solving and coping strategies you can try between meetings. Shannon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and shift behavior. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, achievable goals and track progress.
These approaches make sessions practical and task-oriented when that fits a client's needs. Parents often appreciate a straightforward plan and realistic steps they can use at home. Shannon aims to empower clients to make changes that improve family life and personal well-being.
Her style blends active listening with clear, practical suggestions.

Practical approaches for online parenting support
Shannon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice how thoughts affect feelings and behaviors, then try different actions to change results. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and everyday parenting challenges because it breaks problems into clear steps.She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy, which zeroes in on strengths and small, forward-moving goals. That approach helps clients set short-term targets and track progress, especially when juggling family demands and busy schedules.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shannon will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, preferences, and practical needs. She checks in on progress and adjusts the plan as issues evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when a visual connection helps. Phone can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for brief check-ins, notes, or ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy family routines and changing days.
