About Shannon

Shannon Chenier is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people tackle overwhelming emotions and everyday stress. She makes space for plain talk and steady steps toward clearer thinking and calmer reactions. If anger, anxiety, mood shifts, or life changes feel heavy, Shannon offers straightforward support to sort through them.

Shannon draws on simple, evidence-based methods to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to break down stressful patterns and build more effective ways to cope.

Background and approach

Motivational Interviewing guides conversations about change and strengthens motivation to try different strategies. With three years of professional experience, Shannon has worked with people facing depression, bipolar symptoms, grief, trauma, addiction issues, and relationship stresses. She focuses on what each person brings to the room and helps them use their strengths to move forward.

Sessions are practical and focused on small, usable skills clients can apply between meetings. Shannon practices in Texas and offers therapy in English. She accepts international clients and works through common life concerns like career pressure, self-esteem, and family conflict.

Her approach emphasizes collaboration and steady progress rather than quick fixes. Starting therapy with Shannon begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session. She encourages people to take the first step and is ready to help clients set realistic goals and try clear, manageable tools for change.

How Shannon's approaches work online

Shannon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify upsetting thoughts and change the behaviors that follow. CBT is practical and focused, which makes it easy to use between sessions for issues like anxiety, depression, anger, and stress.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who feel stuck about change. That approach uses guided conversation to build motivation and make a plan that fits the client's own goals, helpful for substance concerns, behavior change, or life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon collaborates with each person to choose the methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in on what is working and adjusts plans as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people read nonverbal cues and use visual worksheets. Phone sessions can fit into breaks or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging work well for short check-ins, homework support, or people who prefer typing. These options help clients fit therapy into busy lives and try different ways of meeting that feel most comfortable.
