She aims to help people build confidence, strengthen self-love, and recover from past harms such as post-traumatic stress.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Shannon commonly blends client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting what is said, and helping the person direct the pace and topics of therapy; it helps when someone needs an accepting space to talk through feelings. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and introduces practical exercises to change patterns; it is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shannon collaborates with each person to identify goals and then tries approaches that match those goals and preferences. She checks in regularly about how a method is working and adjusts course as needed so work stays relevant and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people meet face to face for in-depth conversations, phone is a lower-bandwidth option for a focused check-in, live chat supports brief back-and-forth during a day, and text messaging is helpful for short updates and ongoing reflections. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep momentum between sessions.
