About Shannon

Shannon Tarolli is a Licensed Professional Counselor of Mental Health (LPC-MH) based in Delaware. She has ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, and relationship concerns. Her manner is direct and practical, aimed at helping people find steps they can use day to day.

Shannon blends a few different approaches to match each person’s needs. She uses client-centered ideas to keep sessions focused on what matters most to the client. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build skills for coping with intrusive thoughts, panic, and avoidance.

Her background includes work across mood concerns, obsessive-compulsive symptoms, and grief, alongside experience supporting people with chronic pain, illness, and disability. She has worked with people facing workplace stress and social anxiety as well as those dealing with relationship strain and the aftereffects of trauma.

In sessions she helps people set clear, achievable goals that align with their values. Conversations focus on practical strategies, experiments to try between visits, and gentle exploration of difficult memories when helpful. She emphasizes collaboration so people leave with tools they can use right away.

People who value a straightforward, goal-oriented approach often find this style helpful. To begin, clients follow the site process to match with her and schedule a first appointment through the platform.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following each person's lead. In practice this means the therapist prioritizes what the client brings each session and helps them identify their own goals and values. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches skills to accept difficult thoughts and commit to actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, avoidance, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, often helping with panic, obsessive thoughts, and social anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and collaborate with the client to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean trying a CBT exercise one week and using client-centered conversation the next.

Session formats are not listed in the original biography, so please confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter or more flexible visits when appropriate, and making it simpler to keep appointments during a work break or school schedule. Talk with the therapist during intake to decide how to structure sessions to match daily routines and practical needs.
