About Shandi
Shandi Lindsey, LPC, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, depression, grief, or the fallout from trauma and addiction. She offers straightforward, compassionate support for those wanting to feel steadier day to day. Shandi speaks English and practices in Oregon.
Shandi focuses on listening first. She creates a calm, respectful space where people can describe what feels hard. She helps clients untangle shame and guilt, and find practical steps to cope.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize understanding feelings and trying manageable ways to change unhelpful patterns. Her work draws on client-centered techniques that put the person's priorities first. She also uses cognitive behavioral approaches to identify thought and behavior patterns that keep anxiety and mood problems going.
Mindfulness tools are offered to help with stress and grounding in the moment. Motivational interviewing supports people who are ambivalent about change. Shandi has six years of clinical experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor.
That experience includes helping people process loss, work through post-traumatic stress, and address addictive behaviors. She blends listening with practical skill-building so clients leave with things they can try between sessions. People who choose her can expect a collaborative process.
She helps set clear goals and adjusts methods to fit each person’s needs. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes, with attention to what matters most to the individual.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects understanding, and helps the client decide what to work on next. This approach helps when someone needs a safe place to talk and to sort their priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It helps people notice patterns that feed anxiety or depression and then try small experiments to change them. CBT works well for stress, social anxiety, mood problems, and some trauma-related symptoms.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple practices to bring attention back to the present moment. These techniques can reduce rumination and help during strong emotional waves. Mindfulness is often combined with other methods to manage stress and anxiety.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their goals and comfort level. That process may shift over time as progress is made and new needs appear.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing reflection, quick check-ins, or times when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
