Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Shannon commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as part of her work. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaching practical skills to change them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and relationship patterns. EMDR is a method some people use for processing traumatic memories and reducing the distress linked to those memories.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness techniques to help with emotional regulation and stress management. DBT skills teach concrete strategies for coping with intense feelings, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. Mindfulness practices support noticing reactions and making calmer choices in difficult moments. Choosing an approach is collaborative and part of early sessions. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and current needs to recommend which methods to try together.
