About Greg
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with nine years of experience, Greg Shannon helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, and relationship and family concerns. He also supports parenting challenges, career questions, intimacy issues, grief, trauma, and ADHD-related struggles. Sessions are aimed at practical change and clearer next steps.
Greg worked in private practice, rehabs, and psychiatric wards before focusing on outpatient work. He uses a straightforward style that centers on listening first. That means getting a clear sense of what matters to the person in front of him and what small steps could help right now.
Therapy with Greg blends talking and skill-building. He draws on client-centered methods to let people lead the conversation. He also uses cognitive behavioral approaches to spot thinking patterns that worsen mood and behavior.
When needed, he adds elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing. Those tools support emotion regulation, coping with urges, and finding motivation to change. Solution-focused techniques are used to set short-term goals and track progress.
Sessions include practical problem solving, accountability, and regular feedback about progress. Greg also offers performance coaching for athletes, career advancement, and personal growth. He aims for clear goals and measurable steps rather than long, unfocused meetings.

How Greg uses practical approaches in remote work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. The therapist offers reflection and support while the client identifies what matters most. This approach helps when people need space to clarify goals or feel heard.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavioral changes. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive behaviors. It teaches practical strategies for tolerating distress and improving emotional regulation, which can be useful for addiction urges and anger management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to prioritize based on goals and preferences. That means trying techniques, getting feedback, and adjusting the plan as progress is tracked.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can help fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel and enabling shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it easier to schedule meetings around work or training without promising a specific session type.
