How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Shannon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that keep problems like anger and anxiety active. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and working from the client’s own goals to shape each session.She also uses mindfulness techniques to teach attention and breathing exercises that reduce reactivity. These approaches help with stress, anger regulation, trauma reactions, and improving daily coping. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process; Shannon will discuss options and adjust methods to fit the client's goals and preferences.
The biography does not specify exact session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit counseling into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or remove the need to travel to appointments. Online work can also let clients practice skills between sessions in the places where their challenges occur. Licensed professionals like Shannon aim to match methods and logistics to each person’s life and needs.
