Bobbie Shannon, LPC, LCMHC

Bobbie Shannon is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with 35 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, parenting strains, and family of origin issues. She also addresses trauma, post-traumatic stress, domestic violence, sexual assault and abuse, and related mood and behavior struggles.

Her sessions are direct and interactive. She encourages people to name what feels off and to try specific steps that change daily patterns. She uses clear questions, behavioral work, and practical exercises rather than long abstract talk. Mindfulness skills and brief solution-focused techniques are often included in session plans.

Bobbie combines client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral methods and emotionally-focused ideas to help people notice how family patterns repeat. She draws on decades of clinical work in mental health settings and private practice to offer straightforward guidance. Her approach aims to help clients recognize repeated roles and expectations learned in childhood and to practice different ways of relating now.

She has provided Equine Assisted Psychotherapy for many years and has experience with adolescents, adults, and couples and families in prior work settings. Her background includes work with grief, addiction concerns, codependency, communication problems, divorce and separation, and compassion fatigue.

Bobbie works in English and holds the credentials LPC and LCMHC. People looking to address inherited relationship patterns or ongoing family dynamics can expect practical steps and collaborative planning to shift old habits.
