How Shanene’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, panic, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical exercises to reduce worry and improve mood. It is often used for panic, social anxiety, and depression.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shanene will talk with clients about goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can change as needs shift over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video is good for a full conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quick check-in is needed. Chat and messaging let people share thoughts between sessions or have shorter updates when that suits a schedule. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
