01About Shane
Shane Lopez helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, anger, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, career uncertainty, depression, and life changes. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, body image, gender dysphoria, and questions around sexual identity and kink culture. Shane is a Licensed Professional Counselor, with nine years of clinical experience in Louisiana.
He uses clear, direct conversation to make things easier to talk about. Shane mixes teaching with gentle reframing so people can see patterns in their thoughts and behavior.
Background and approach
He often works with storytelling and metaphor to make difficult ideas feel more manageable. Sessions focus on practical steps and thoughtful reflection. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try new responses.
Narrative ideas help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves. Shane describes his approach as interactive rather than prescriptive. He invites questions and tries to build understanding together, not lecture.
This helps people who want concrete tools and those who want to look deeper at meaning and values. Clients can expect straightforward language and short-term skills alongside deeper exploration when useful. He draws on nine years of counseling work and a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling to guide sessions.
The aim is to make progress at a pace that fits each person’s life.

04Online support
How his approach translates to online therapy
Shane uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy in ways that fit remote work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes; it helps with anxiety, depression, and managing impulses. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps reframe those stories to open up new choices, which can be useful for identity, shame, and life purpose questions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shane will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit the issue at hand. He adjusts pacing and exercises based on what is working, and reviews progress together so plans can change when needed.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera, and live chat or text-based messaging make it easy to check in between sessions or fit therapy into a busy day. These formats let people continue consistent work without extra travel and make it easier to keep momentum while balancing other responsibilities.
