Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Shannon uses approaches that emphasize collaboration and practical skills to help clients move through challenges and build resilience. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating an empathetic, nonjudgmental space where clients lead the conversation and identify goals; it is often helpful for people seeking support with self-esteem, relationship concerns, or life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop concrete coping strategies for issues like depression, anxiety, and behavior change. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes setting clear, achievable goals and building on strengths to create rapid, practical shifts in everyday functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Shannon works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and pace so that therapy feels useful and aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing sessions through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier for clients to fit therapy into busy lives, maintain continuity of care across locations, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them. Licensed professionals can adapt evidence-based techniques to online formats to support meaningful progress over time.
