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

I have an eclectic approach to helping people reach a level of thriving and living well.

I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland and a Licensed Professional Counselor in South Carolina and Georgia.

I consider myself an eclectic and person-centered therapist. I do not take a cookie-cutter approach to the session; rather, I address each client as an individual. I believe it is vital to work with you as an individual, as this is your journey to healing.

I help people struggling with anxiety, depression, life transitions, or interpersonal challenges. Using theories and strategies tailored to your specific needs, I'm with you to develop and maintain hope as you move toward healing and your desired outcomes.

Life can be challenging, and I'm here to meet you where you are. Many of us endure distress that causes mental, emotional, and physical anguish. Changing the way you think can influence how you feel and how you react to life's challenges. I'll equip you with tools to challenge automatic thoughts and relieve tension caused by stress.

Through solution-focused techniques, insight-oriented therapies, and motivational interviewing, people develop coping skills to shift beliefs, change behaviors, and overcome negative past events. Clients learn to improve their social interactions and personal development to reduce anxiety, depression, and other issues.

I am honored to work with you during your healing journey. I help children, adolescents, families, and individuals navigating addiction find support and growth through counseling tailored to your unique needs.

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Certified Addiction Counselor (CADCII) with over 15 years of experience in helping individuals navigate life’s challenges. My passion lies in providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings.

I use a variety of approaches to support each client's unique needs and goals. Sometimes, the most powerful thing is simply having a safe space to share your thoughts and feelings. Together, we explore what's going on in your life, identify patterns, and work toward clarity and healing.

I offer a warm, relaxed partnership grounded in deep understanding—helping you recognize patterns, make meaningful connections, and see yourself more clearly. Maybe you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by anxiety, grief, past trauma, or a major life change. Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to figure it out alone.

Life can throw several types of curveballs, and conversing with someone professional for support and guidance can be helpful.

I've worked in a variety of settings with a vast array of individuals and couples. Throughout my life, I have been told that I am a "good listener"; I will sit with you and listen to what you want to be heard. I love mental wellness; it is a lifelong practice and journey.

I offer a space where you can exhale, be yourself, and feel truly supported. I work with teens and adults feeling anxious, depressed, burned out, or stuck in patterns that no longer serve them. Our work together will help you reconnect with your resilience and move forward sustainably.
