How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Shannon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative responses with simple experiments and homework tasks; it is often helpful for anxiety, depression, anger, and attention difficulties. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting so a person can clarify priorities and feel understood, which supports work on identity, parenting, and relationship concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. Shannon will review goals, try methods that fit the concern, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Sessions aim to combine practical skill-building with time to process emotions so the approach stays aligned with the client's needs and preferences.
