About Shannon Detwiler

Shannon Detwiler, LMHC, is a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida with 9 years of experience supporting women who feel depleted from constantly taking care of others. Many of the women she works with have long been the dependable one - holding everything together for family, work, and relationships - and over time may feel disconnected from their own needs, identity, and sense of direction.

Shannon helps clients make sense of the guilt that can surface when they try to prioritize themselves, along with the anxiety, depression, low self-confidence, and burnout that often follow years of people-pleasing and over-responsibility. Her work centers on reconnecting clients with who they are beneath the roles and expectations they have carried, while exploring the patterns that keep them stuck in self-doubt and strained boundaries.

In therapy, Shannon offers a compassionate, non-judgmental environment to explore inner experiences, process the impact of past events, and strengthen self-trust. Her goal is to help clients move from feeling overwhelmed and disconnected toward feeling more grounded, confident, and aligned with what matters most to them - including a life where their needs matter too.

Evidence-Based Approaches, Made Accessible Online

Shannon Detwiler, LMHC, draws from practical, research-informed approaches that can translate well to online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and practicing new ways of responding, which can be especially useful for anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes making room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most, supporting clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their values. Client-Centered Therapy offers a supportive, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their experiences at their own pace and strengthen self-trust and clarity.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shannon works collaboratively with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and current challenges, then adjusts the pace and strategies so therapy feels relevant and workable over time.

Online therapy also offers flexibility without losing structure. Clients can meet through video calls or phone sessions, and can also use live chat or text-based messaging for added accessibility between sessions. These options can be helpful for busy schedules, life transitions, or anyone who wants support in a format that fits day-to-day demands.
