About Shannon
Shannon Shuler is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) practicing in South Carolina with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on common and complex concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, anger, and issues related to intimacy and self-esteem.
Shannon has worked in a variety of clinical settings and brings practical experience with medical and pain care, dialysis-related stress, and recovery after suicide attempts. She also helps people facing infertility, substance and behavioral addictions, and post-trauma symptoms. Her background includes work with grief and mood disorders such as bipolar conditions.
In sessions she uses straightforward methods that encourage active participation. She draws from client-centered work to keep the focus on each person’s goals. She also applies cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and uses mindfulness practices to build moment-to-moment coping skills.
For people dealing with anger, Shannon helps identify triggers, practice new responses, and repair strained relationships. She uses strategies from dialectical behavior therapy to manage strong emotions and from EMDR when trauma memories are part of the problem. Motivational interviewing supports change when substance use or other habits are involved.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's goals and experience and involves listening and feedback to help clarify what matters most. It helps people who want practical, goal-focused conversations about anger, relationships, or stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions often include specific exercises and homework to reduce unhelpful thinking and change reactive behavior. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication when anger or intense emotions are present.
Finding the right method is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches to emphasize based on needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying a tool or skill for several weeks and adjusting what is used based on how it helps.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit appointments around work or caregiving, reduce time spent traveling, and choose shorter check-ins when needed. If you need to coordinate timing, quieter surroundings, or alternatives to video, confirm the available options during scheduling.
