About Shannon

LCSW in Oklahoma with 20 years of clinical experience, Shannon Sartori focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and related concerns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and draws on varied past roles to help people manage symptoms and daily challenges.

Shannon spent many years in public and community settings. She has worked in youth and family centers, coordinated in-school therapy, managed Victims of Crime Act services, and done assessment and referral for people with serious mental illness. She also has experience with court and prison systems and has maintained a private practice.

Her sessions are practical and goal-oriented. She helps people identify patterns of thought and behavior and then tries out changes that can reduce distress. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, hoarding, first responder stress, gender dysphoria, and living with HIV or AIDS.

Shannon works with a broad range of concerns including self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger, career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She emphasizes building on existing strengths and teaching tools that can be used between sessions.

Clients can expect a straightforward conversation about what is most pressing and a plan for next steps. The focus is on practical skills from CBT and on connecting those skills to everyday life. To begin, people complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How CBT is used in online sessions

Shannon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a core method. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, or stress. It is practical and often includes short exercises to use between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shannon will collaborate with each person to decide whether CBT and the tools it offers fit their goals and preferences. She adapts plans based on what is effective and what the person is able to practice in daily life.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can guide scheduling and the pace of work to fit school, shift work, parenting, or other obligations.
