About Greg

Greg Shannon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with nine years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, trauma, relationship problems, grief, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and anger. He also supports clients who want coaching for career or performance goals. Greg offers a straightforward approach that focuses on practical tools and measurable progress.

Greg has worked in private practice, inpatient rehabs, and psychiatric wards. That range gives him experience with both crisis-driven care and longer-term counseling. He prefers short-term, skills-based work when that fits a person’s goals, but will use longer approaches as needed.

In sessions he emphasizes clear feedback and accountability. He listens first, and then helps people try out new strategies. Common tools include goal-setting, behavioral experiments, and skills practice to reduce reactivity and improve relationships.

Greg uses methods drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. He describes his style as direct and practical, aiming for ideas clients can apply between sessions.

People who choose him often want concrete steps to manage anger, cravings, mood swings, or workplace stress. He also provides coaching for athletes and professionals who want to raise performance. To begin, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site's scheduling steps.

How his approaches translate to online care

CBT helps people notice the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and then try practical experiments to test new ways of acting. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger management by breaking problems into small, playable steps. DBT brings specific skills for managing strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help when anger or relationship conflict is a recurring problem.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Greg will talk with clients about their goals and preferences and then suggest which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is tracked and needs evolve.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Many people find it easier to practice skills between appointments when sessions are scheduled around daily life. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and DBT exercises to remote sessions so clients still get practical tools and direct feedback.
