Approaches Shannon names

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

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

CBT tools and online options for everyday struggles

Shannon uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central approach. CBT focuses on spotting patterns in thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches practical exercises to test new ways of thinking, reduce anxious or depressive symptoms, and change habits that cause harm.

She emphasizes collaborative planning when choosing techniques. The therapist and client look at goals, try techniques for a few weeks, and adjust what is working. This makes therapy a team effort where the approach is chosen to fit the person’s needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins and written exercises between sessions. These options give flexibility to keep progress going even with a busy schedule or changing responsibilities.
