Shannon Wise, LPC

Shannon Wise is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Alabama with 12 years of mental health experience. She works with adults and teens on a range of concerns including stress and anxiety, relationship and communication difficulties, sleep problems, anger management, depression, grief, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, and family matters. Shannon approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to fit each individual’s circumstances.

Her clinical background spans crisis stabilization and community care. For about five years she served as a Therapist Acute working with voluntary and involuntary clients hospitalized during crises to support stabilization and reintegration into daily life. She then worked for about four years as a Mental Health Professional in a correctional facility, assisting treatment teams with stress management, referral needs for medication, and interventions related to safety and observation for those with chronic symptoms. More recently Shannon has provided over a year of care in private practice to adults, teens, and couples.

Shannon uses an integrative approach, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support emotional regulation and conflict resolution, Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach coping skills for grounding, relaxation, and distress tolerance, and Reality Therapy to set practical goals for improved quality of life. She emphasizes collaborative goal setting and regular progress review to help people regain hope, increase self-awareness, and build the skills needed for meaningful personal growth.
