About Lashannon
Lashannon Butler is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with six years of experience helping people manage life’s hard moments. She practices in Mississippi and brings a calm, steady presence to conversations about stress, grief, anxiety, and mood concerns. Lashannon keeps language simple and focuses on clear steps a person can take next.
She meets people where they are and builds a plan around practical needs. Sessions are nonjudgmental and respectful.
Background and approach
The work can include talking through recent losses, coping with life changes, or addressing patterns that create ongoing stress. Lashannon uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes. She also draws on client-centered methods to follow a person’s priorities and narrative therapy to help reframe personal stories.
These approaches are mixed to fit each person’s situation. Common topics she addresses include depression, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, parenting concerns, addictions, and sleep or eating difficulties. She also supports people facing career stress, financial worry, and challenges tied to aging or blended family dynamics.
Sessions are practical and goal-oriented while keeping room for empathy and real-world problem solving. Lashannon focuses on teaching skills people can use between sessions. She aims to encourage and empower each person to take the next step they feel ready for.
Approaches that guide online counseling and how they help
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following a person’s priorities. The therapist offers understanding and supports each client in choosing goals they care about, which works well when someone needs space to sort feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It breaks problems into smaller parts and teaches simple skills to change unhelpful thinking and try new actions, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lashannon will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to try first and will adjust the plan based on progress, needs, and personal preferences. This is a team process where the client’s goals guide choices.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and let people continue work from home or while traveling. The variety of formats also allows for shorter check-ins or longer hour sessions depending on what the person needs.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
