Approaches that translate to online care

Shauna uses cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors; this approach often focuses on practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers tools for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for intense emotions and relationship struggles. Client-centered therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship where the therapist follows the client's lead and supports personal growth and self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work, and Shauna collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they tailor interventions and adjust strategies as progress unfolds, making treatment a shared process.

Online therapy with Shauna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and maintain consistency in treatment while fitting therapy into busy lives.
