Shanna May
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist, MSW, MAEd, LCAS, LCSW, CCS
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist, I specialize in supporting adults who are navigating the complexities of mental health and substance use challenges. My approach is centered on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their experiences and aspirations. What sets my practice apart is my use of a variety of evidence-based interventions tailored to meet you where you are in your journey. I am passionate about this work and find great fulfillment in helping individuals overcome their struggles and achieve a sense of hope and resilience.
I offer individual telehealth therapy for adults, as well as group consultation, professional consulting, and adjunct facilitation and teaching services. Services are available in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia, with a focus on mental health and addiction treatment.
Inspire GrowthWorks PLLC
The dandelion represents resilience, healing, growth, and transformation. Although often overlooked or misunderstood, dandelions continue to thrive in difficult environments, symbolizing the ability to persevere through life’s challenges while still growing toward light and change.
At Inspire GrowthWorks, the dandelion reflects the belief that healing is not about perfection. It is about learning to adapt, rebuild, and reconnect with yourself even after difficult seasons. Just as dandelion seeds are carried by the wind and begin again in new places, growth and healing are possible even after loss, stress, trauma, burnout, anxiety, or major life transitions.
The blowing dandelion also represents hope, renewal, freedom, and the courage to move forward. Mental health journeys are deeply personal, and healing often begins with small steps, self compassion, and feeling genuinely supported and understood.
The logo was intentionally designed to reflect gentle growth, emotional resilience, inner strength, and the belief that meaningful change can happen over time in a safe and supportive space.
