Latasha Shannon, LMSW, LCSW

Latasha Shannon is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 19 years of practice based in Michigan. She has worked across state lines and supports people dealing with anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, mood disorders and relationship stress. She lists codependency among areas she focuses on.

Latasha approaches therapy in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions are practical and conversational. She uses methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches to help clients notice patterns and try different responses.

She works with people facing grief, chronic stress, compassion fatigue and career-related strain. She also helps those coping with separation, caregiving and end-of-life concerns. Addictions, impulsivity and problems with communication are within her stated focus areas.

In session she often helps clients name unhelpful thoughts, practice skills for emotional regulation, and build more effective routines. That can include short skill-building exercises, setting small goals, and checking what works between meetings. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when relationships and attachment issues are central to the work.

Her style aims to be direct and practical. People who find themselves putting others first or getting stuck in patterns of people-pleasing may find the focus on boundaries and coping strategies useful. Before booking, confirm current session formats and scheduling details.
