Online therapy grounded in practical, person-centered care

Therese Shumaker, LPCC, draws from approaches that help clients feel understood while also building real-world tools for change. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore anxiety, depression, stress, eating concerns, and relationship challenges at a pace that feels manageable.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is often helpful for noticing how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. In sessions, clients can learn to identify unhelpful patterns, strengthen coping skills, and practice more balanced ways of responding to stressors. Mindfulness Therapy adds skills for staying grounded in the present moment, which can be useful when emotions feel intense or when guilt, shame, or worry takes over.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Therese works collaboratively with clients to understand what they want from therapy, what has or has not helped before, and which strategies feel like the best fit for their goals and preferences.

Online therapy also offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to get support consistently, fit sessions into a busy week, and choose the format that feels most comfortable.
