Approaches and Benefits of Online Therapy
Shannon uses client-centered therapy to place the client's perspective and goals at the heart of care, creating a respectful, collaborative space where the therapist follows the client's lead to build motivation and clarify priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges by linking thoughts, feelings, and actions. Motivational Interviewing supports change by strengthening a person s own motivation and commitment, which can be especially helpful for substance use, ambivalence about change, or building readiness for new behaviors.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shannon works collaboratively with each person to evaluate which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve.
Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or to connect from different locations. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent, ongoing support while accommodating varying comfort levels and communication styles.
