Background and approach
Shannon emphasizes clear communication and works with clients to set achievable goals for daily life. Her background includes three years of clinical work. During that time she developed experience addressing LGBT-related concerns, traumatic events, and complicated grief.
She also supports people managing control issues and communication breakdowns in personal relationships. Shannon explains methods in straightforward language and adapts tools to each person’s situation. That might mean practicing breathing and grounding skills for panic, mapping relationship patterns to improve intimacy, or building routines to stabilize mood.
She aims for sessions that feel manageable and directly useful. People who prefer different ways of connecting can use video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Shannon helps people decide which session format will fit their needs and daily schedules.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Shannon uses evidence-based techniques that focus on reducing symptoms and improving daily functioning. Cognitive Behavioral approaches involve identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to change mood and anxiety, which can be useful for panic attacks and mood disorders. Trauma-focused methods help people process upsetting memories and learn grounding skills to manage distress, which is often applied for post-traumatic stress and abuse-related concerns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client talk about needs, goals, and what feels comfortable, then try methods that fit those preferences. Shannon adapts tools over time so the work stays relevant and manageable for each person.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues and a fuller conversation; phone can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can fit brief updates, homework check-ins, or people who prefer written communication. These options offer flexibility for scheduling and make it easier to maintain consistent work on goals.
