Shanon Thompson, LPC — Therapist in Georgia

Hi there, I'm Shanon!

Welcome! I am your preferred therapist, Shanon Thompson. I look forward to working with you to achieve your goals for therapy.

My focus

I have worked with a wide age range of clients in the community, virtual, and private practice settings. I have experience with clients who have challenges with anxiety, depression, stress, ADD, ADHD, anger management, addiction, bipolar, couples therapy, phobias, self-harm, grief, and trauma.

My approach

I utilize CBT techniques and use a client-centered approach.

My communication style

I like to create an open environment with my clients. This includes being compassionate but forward when needed. This provides an opportunity to share techniques and create goals together that focus on improved behavior.

My journey to mental healthcare

Psychology was a first love for me, but not my first career choice. Life has brought me back full circle, and I don't regret the journey. I enjoy celebrating with clients as they make progress and meet their goals. Reminding myself and others that life can always get better.

My goals for you

Goal setting with me will be a team effort with a well-thought-out process to produce results.

Our first session

In your first session, I will connect with you while gathering pertinent information about your present issues and related circumstances.
