Remote therapy options



Shauna provides therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options allow individuals, couples, and families to connect from different locations while working on the concerns they bring to therapy.

Her work draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and on client-centered principles to ensure the person s goals and pace guide each session. Emotionally focused strategies and mindfulness practices are used to explore relational patterns and to bring attention to present-moment experience. Motivational interviewing may be introduced when exploring change related to substance use or other behavioral shifts.

Sessions are collaborative and tailored to the needs of the person or family. Shauna adapts techniques from these approaches to match the presenting issues and the communication format chosen, whether that is a scheduled video appointment or more text-based support.
