Approach-Focused Care Delivered Online
Shannon often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy into her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and learn practical ways to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns of relating that developed in early relationships and helps people build stronger emotional connections and safer ways of interacting, which can be especially helpful for relationship, intimacy, and attachment concerns.Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Shannon works with clients to identify which methods best align with their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adapts the plan over time so therapy remains useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Those options can make scheduling easier, support continuity of care across locations, and allow clients to access therapy in formats that suit their daily life. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these modalities to provide consistent, goal-oriented care tailored to each client’s circumstances.
