Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Shannon integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing into her online practice to meet a range of needs. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic relationship and helps people explore feelings and values while identifying their own solutions - it is helpful for improving self-esteem, processing loss, and navigating life transitions.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) addresses the links between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors and offers practical tools to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and social avoidance by testing and reframing unhelpful thinking patterns. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, nonjudgmental method for enhancing motivation to change, often used when addressing substance use, ambivalence, or readiness to adopt healthier habits.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shannon works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals to identify which methods best align with each person’s goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time to find the best fit.

Online therapy with Shannon is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for scheduling and formats. These options make it easier to access care from different locations and to use the mode of communication that feels most comfortable for the individual.
