Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a collaborative relationship in which the therapist offers empathy, active listening, and unconditional positive regard so clients can explore their thoughts and feelings and discover personal solutions. This approach is helpful for people seeking a supportive environment to process life transitions, relationship concerns, or grief.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors by teaching practical skills and experiments to change responses to stress and anxiety. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and for developing coping strategies around addictive behaviors.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. It can be especially useful for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and developing concrete skills to handle difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shwanna works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, goals, and preferences and to adapt methods over time so the chosen approach fits the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit counseling into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and access care from home or other convenient locations while working with a licensed professional.
