Shannon LaTray

Shannon LaTray is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who helps people work through stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, mood struggles, and relationship difficulties. She brings nine years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical change rather than labels. Her tone is straightforward and supportive for people seeking steady help with emotional ups and downs.

Shannon uses approaches that emphasize the client’s perspective and real-life problems. She helps people name patterns, try small experiments, and build clearer ways of coping. Sessions often include talking through reactions, practicing new skills, and setting short-term goals to test what works.

Her work addresses many common concerns, including depression, grief, self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating issues, ADHD, and the stress around major life changes. Shannon also supports people facing addiction, compassion fatigue, career transitions, and intimacy-related worries. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment themes that often shape how people relate to others.

In therapy she draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. Those methods guide conversations, help unpack difficult emotions, and set manageable steps toward change. Shannon emphasizes collaboration so clients remain in control of what they try.

Sessions are offered in English and are provided from her New Jersey practice. She holds LMHC credentials in New York and Massachusetts as noted, and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Shannon’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client, helping people feel heard and understood while they decide what changes to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks larger problems into specific thoughts and actions, and helps clients test new ways of coping that reduce distress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and name core emotions and patterns in relationships, which can make it easier to shift how someone responds to triggers and anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and life situation. She often blends elements from these approaches so sessions are practical, focused, and tailored to what the client wants to change.
