How Shawnda Uses Different Approaches Online
Shawnda integrates Client-Centered Therapy with practical methods to help clients meet their goals. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's pace so they can talk through what matters most and set clear goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It often involves simple homework or real-world practice to reduce anxiety, manage mood, or break cycles that get in the way of recovery.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name emotions in key moments so they can respond differently. This can be useful for managing strong feelings after loss or trauma and for improving emotional clarity.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and try methods that match those concerns. Shawnda will adjust techniques over time based on what helps the client make steady progress.
