How Shannon Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Shannon commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy when working with people. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors to reduce worry and improve daily functioning. Client-Centered Therapy creates a supportive space where the person sets the pace and the therapist offers empathy and listening to help clarify goals.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that ease reactivity and support coping with stress. These techniques can make it easier to notice patterns and choose different responses in stressful moments.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shannon works with each person to decide which methods match their goals, values, and comfort level. She checks in over time and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can focus on progress rather than logistics.
