Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Shannon commonly integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address relationship and emotional concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early connection patterns affect current relationships and can be helpful for attachment issues, trust difficulties, and relational healing. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and a nonjudgmental presence, supporting self-exploration, emotional processing, and rebuilding self-worth. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change coping patterns.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shannon works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and she tailors techniques from these approaches to find the best fit for each person and family.
Online therapy offers flexible options that support continuity of care. Sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from home, work, or other environments that suit their schedules. This flexibility can make it easier to maintain regular sessions and apply therapeutic tools between meetings.
