Evidence-based approaches and online care
Shana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques alongside values-based conversation. One common approach she uses focuses on practical skill building - identifying patterns, practicing new behaviors, and reviewing what works. This style is useful for stress, anxiety, workplace problems, and building self-esteem.Another frequent element is values-informed coaching that helps people clarify priorities and set manageable goals. That work looks at life purpose, self-love, and decisions around relationships or separation. It involves short exercises and regular check-ins to track progress over time.
Choosing the best approach is a shared process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions start by identifying a few priorities and then testing approaches until the best fit is clear.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video helps with face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels.
