How his approaches guide online work
Shannon often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify values and take small actions toward a better life. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to behavior that matches what matters to you, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.He also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and try practical experiments. CBT teaches concrete skills for managing moods, sleep, and stress, and it can be useful for issues like anxiety, depression, and coping with change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Shannon will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. He adjusts methods over time so sessions stay practical and relevant to your life.
