About Shane

Shane King is a licensed clinical social worker with 13 years of experience. He practices in Connecticut and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Shane takes a straightforward, calm approach in sessions so people can talk about what matters most to them.

He uses practical methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and related approaches to help people notice patterns and try small changes. Sessions often include clear steps to manage emotions, reduce worry, and improve communication.

Background and approach

Shane also brings experience from management roles into how he structures sessions and sets realistic goals. Shane helps people facing trauma, anger, parenting strain, workplace stress, and challenges with self-esteem or life purpose. He also addresses attachment issues, fatherhood concerns, and problems around guilt or forgiveness.

He works with people coping with bipolar disorder and major life changes, offering a blend of therapy and coaching to support day-to-day functioning. People can expect a collaborative style that centers their priorities. The focus is on building skills, finding practical solutions, and creating room for personal insight.

Approaches Shane names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.

Online support

Approaches and online options that fit modern life

Shane commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and building treatment around the person's goals and values. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, respectful space to sort out feelings and priorities.

He also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches concrete skills to reduce anxiety and depressive patterns. CBT tends to work well for stress, worry, and mood concerns because it gives practical tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Shane works together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy makes regular sessions easier to keep. Video calls let you see facial cues and practice communication work, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or you need a simpler check-in, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for shorter updates, homework, or quick coping support. These options aim to add flexibility so therapy fits into busy lives rather than the other way around.
