Transform your life by seeking change.
We want people who are willing to implement interventions and directives given to them. We offer a place where you can vent but also improve.
Our clients feel less burned out and learn to regulate and manage overwhelming emotions, allowing them to facilitate change in their lives through self-care – to transform.
Our clients also want to utilize their strengths to develop resiliency and learn to become the facilitator of change in all areas of their lives.
Exploring how Therapy creates Connection
Everywhere you turn, you hear mixed reviews about therapy and how and if it helps or can help you. How does therapy work, and what could it be like for you?
You’ve listened to your friends and family and found that their advice leaves you feeling judged, misunderstood, and worse off at times. Then, you’re back where you started, in the dark, feeling alone and lost.
Your anxiety tells you that therapy is not worth it – you can pray it away, or you can muscle through on your own. But if that were true, you wouldn’t be at this moment in time where you have tried everything you can think of only to achieve minimal or no success.
We offer the type of space you need.
So, what does it take to cultivate a space that gives you what you need and helps you become better than you ever imagined?
This type of space requires a deep level of trust, connection, safety, and most of all, a willingness to be vulnerable in a way that many try to avoid. This space is uniquely yours, where you will enjoy a warm conversational experience.
You will laugh, you may cry, you may even scream out of anger or frustration, but rest assured, all of this and more is welcome here.
At the end of our time together, you will leave feeling empowered, confident, and have a clear sense of the direction for what you want from life and how to sustain that direction.

About Shannon Johnson LCPC,LPC-MFT
Did you know that engaging in therapy can actually change the way your brain works? That’s right! Research shows that talking things out with a therapist can reshape neural pathways, which in turn can shift how you perceive and interact with the world. It’s like giving your brain a little tune-up, helping you rewire your life and reality for the better.
My name is Shannon. I am glad you are here. Here is a little about my background. I earned my undergraduate degree in Psychology with a minor in Biology from Florida A&M University(Go Rattlers), where I delved into the fascinating biological aspects of the mind and the mind-body connection. Attending an HBCU was particularly meaningful for me—it allowed me to connect deeply with my roots and gain insights and has enhance my ability to connect with my clients. This background helps me support BIPOC individuals in discovering and embracing their true selves.
Continuing my education, I pursued a Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy at Valdosta State University. Beyond my formal training, I am also a presenter and speaker, driven by a passion for helping people break free from the chains of perfectionism, anxiety, and trauma.
My Approach:
Therapy is all about creating a space that’s as safe as it is engaging—a conversation where you can feel free to share your innermost thoughts, laugh, grow, and transform. I understand that change can be tough, especially when it feels like you’re battling years of conditioning and old programming. But I’m honored to be on this journey with you, to share in your triumphs and challenges, and to navigate even the toughest moments together. After all, being human means embracing the full spectrum of emotions—so why not laugh a little at the absurdity of it all? Remember, it’s perfectly okay to be imperfect.
In therapy, I help clients turn their pain into power. After all, if we can’t laugh at ourselves, we might miss out on some of life’s best moments.
Who I work with:
Individuals facing a range of issues, including depression, day to day stressors, anxiety, low self-esteem, life transitions, and trauma. My goal is to support you through these struggles and help you find clarity and healing.
Individual in need of EMDR,Somatic and/or Parts Work:
I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, which uses a full-body approach to help clients overcome trauma. This technique aims to reduce the impact of traumatic memories so they no longer control your life.
Services:
Please note that I only accept United Insurance, while other services are available on a private pay basis.
I look forward to embarking on this journey with you and supporting you as you embrace your fullest self.
Here’s something personal
I am a black woman, a licensed therapist, a daughter, and a human being who acknowledges the world’s challenges both for men and women. I enjoy spending time with family, working out, meditating, reading, and traveling in my free time.
My favorite saying:
for I am the only thinker in my mind.”
