Sessions often include talking through current problems, building skills to manage strong emotions, and trying simple exercises to calm the nervous system.
Background and approach
Shawn emphasizes a collaborative plan you shape together, not a one-size-fits-all checklist. Shawn blends several therapy styles to match each person’s needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change responses.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy supports recognizing and expressing emotions that affect relationships and connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness techniques offer tools to stay present and act in line with personal values. She has worked with adolescents and adults and brings trauma-informed practices into therapy.
That means sessions pay attention to how stress shows up in the body and in day-to-day life. Shawn adjusts pacing and techniques if someone needs more time to feel steady. People who contact her usually want practical strategies they can use between sessions.
Shawn supports work on communication problems, attachment concerns, caregiver stress, grief after separation, social anxiety, and mood changes. She encourages small steps and clear goals to help clients build lasting change.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Shawn commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. CBT helps people notice thoughts and beliefs that lead to unhelpful feelings, then practices new responses to change mood and behavior. ACT focuses on values and committed actions, helping clients accept difficult feelings while moving toward what matters most.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address how emotions affect connection and communication. That approach helps people name and shift patterns that get in the way of relationships or self-understanding. Together with mindfulness techniques, these methods give practical tools for stress, anxiety, trauma responses, and parenting strain.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Shawn treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts pacing and techniques as progress is made and as priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and exercises. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging work for brief check-ins, problem-solving, and ongoing support between longer sessions.
