About Bobbie
Bobbie Shannon is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina. She brings 35 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, and challenges like parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her approach is warm and direct, and she focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions.
She uses a mix of straightforward methods to help people find their own answers.
Background and approach
That often means using cognitive techniques to change unhelpful thinking, emotion-focused work to improve connections, and solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals. Sessions tend to be interactive and goal-oriented rather than purely reflective. Bobbie’s background includes long experience in both mental health facilities and independent practice.
She has worked with adults and young adults on issues such as relationship conflict, family of origin concerns, domestic violence aftermath, sexual assault and abuse, mood disorders, and post-traumatic stress. Her clinical lens is practical and strengths-based. In session she aims to create a straightforward, supportive space.
She listens for patterns and offers clear tools for coping, communication, and emotional regulation. She also helps people sort through major life changes like separation, divorce, or career transitions. Her work emphasizes building confidence and resilience.
People who come to her can expect collaborative goal-setting, tangible skills to use outside sessions, and steady support while they make changes.

Online support
Approaches and how they work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. The therapist offers empathy, reflection, and space for someone to find their own answers, which helps when people are unsure what they want next or feel stuck.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions. It uses clear exercises and homework to change unhelpful thinking patterns and is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people notice and express deeper emotions and improve emotional connection in relationships. It can be useful when patterns of disconnection or repeated conflict create distress.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, try different methods, and adapt over time based on what helps most. Preferences, the problem at hand, and how someone responds to early sessions guide that choice.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls allow a face-to-face feel for deeper work, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and text-based messaging can support ongoing troubleshooting between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep progress consistent.
