Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Shawn often integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify their values and take meaningful action despite difficult thoughts or feelings - ACT is useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation challenges. He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to explore how early relationship patterns influence current connections and to improve communication and trust in relationships. In addition, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is employed to identify and adjust unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and panic symptoms.

Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Shawn works with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and life context, adapting techniques over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules, travel, or limited local options. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access licensed professionals from different locations while tailoring the pace and style of sessions to individual needs.
