Online Therapy and Therapeutic Approaches with Steven Shampain

Steven uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify what matters most to them and build consistent action toward those values. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful behavior changes, which can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions.

He also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT offers practical tools for managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and challenges like anger or low self esteem by teaching skills for problem solving and thought work.

Alongside these methods, Steven applies Client Centered Therapy principles, creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where the client s perspective and goals guide the pace and focus of work. Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process - Steven collaborates with each person to determine which techniques best match their needs, goals, and preferences.

Online therapy provides flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text based messaging. This range of options makes it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, continue progress during transitions, and maintain regular contact with a therapist in ways that suit each client s schedule and comfort.
