Approaches Shannon Uses and how online work fits
Shannon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. CBT helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping skills for mood, anxiety, and behavior change. Solution-Focused work emphasizes small, realistic steps and clear goals to produce measurable change over time.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The first sessions often clarify whether more trauma-focused strategies are needed and which techniques produce the most useful short-term gains.
