Background and approach
Shana has worked in the field for 10 years and holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential. She practices in Indiana and offers help to clients who prefer talking through issues by phone, video, chat, or text messaging. Common concerns she supports include depression, feeling isolated, trouble with control, and caregiver stress.
She also addresses issues like abandonment, forgiveness, midlife questions, mood disorders, narcissism-related conflict, and social anxiety or phobia. The first sessions focus on what matters most to the client. From there she helps set realistic goals and small, manageable steps to reduce stress and improve sleep and relationships.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Shana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical tools people can use right away. One common approach emphasizes behavior-focused strategies to change habits that worsen anxiety and sleep problems; it helps by breaking issues into small, manageable steps. Another approach targets thoughts and feelings, helping people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different ways of interpreting stressful situations to reduce worry and mood swings.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the process. She works together with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and daily life. The plan can be adjusted as progress is made so therapy stays useful and realistic.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is low, chat gives a faster check-in format, and messaging supports short updates or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or a busy schedule.
