Shawna Morrison-Flood, LCSW

Shawna Morrison-Flood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, grief, parenting, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also notes additional focus areas including caregiver stress, communication problems, codependency, and family problems.

Shawna trained in social work and began her career at a local Department of Social Services doing Child Protective Services assessment and investigation. Over time she pursued clinical social work and has worked with people from varied backgrounds and with a range of mental health diagnoses. That background informs how she approaches safety and risk when needed.

Her style is straightforward and engaging. She starts by listening to where a person is right now and what they want to accomplish. From there she uses practical methods to help people make changes that matter to their day-to-day life.

Clinically she draws from several approaches rather than relying on a single method. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices often appear in her work to help with mood, anxiety, and coping skills. She also uses client-centered and motivational techniques to support decision making and strengthen motivation for change.

People who want clear, task-focused sessions will find her direct working style useful. She values respect and self-determination and emphasizes collaborative goal-setting. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling before booking.
