Her professional path includes extensive work in correctional environments and six years on the Criminal Justice Team at Jefferson Center for Mental Health.

That background includes case management, resource connection, trauma processing, and development of coping strategies for clients with dual diagnoses.

She draws on an eclectic set of tools, including Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Solution-Focused methods, tailoring each plan to a client’s goals.

Remote therapy options and methods



Shanna offers online sessions using video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible ways to work together. These options are used to maintain consistent contact, practice skills between sessions, and adapt to each person’s scheduling needs. The format chosen is selected in collaboration with the client so that the work fits daily life and therapeutic goals.

She uses Motivational Interviewing to help clients clarify their reasons for change and to build internal motivation. That approach pairs well with solution-oriented planning and practical steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to examine patterns of thinking and behavior and to develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are also available to support emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness.

In remote work she emphasizes a team approach: the client’s perspective guides which techniques are emphasized and how sessions are structured. Sessions over video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging are arranged to match the client’s preferences and the therapeutic plan.
