Therapeutic Approaches and Online Counseling Options
Shannon commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and creating a supportive space so clients can explore values, identity, and goals at their own pace. This approach is often helpful for self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based approach that helps people recognize and adjust unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT is frequently effective for stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and other mood-related issues.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is another approach Shannon employs when relational patterns and attachment needs are central. EFT helps partners and family members understand emotional responses and rebuild connection through focused work on interactional patterns.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shannon works with each person or family to identify goals, preferences, and strengths, and she tailors methods to fit those needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions can take place by video call or phone, and additional support can be offered through live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, to connect across distances, and to maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible.
