Background and approach

She also trained in life coaching and sometimes uses coaching tools alongside counselling work. Her background includes supporting people with trauma, addictions, phobias and disruptive behaviour patterns. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs.

Shannon favours client-centred techniques alongside cognitive work and mindfulness practices. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas when it helps to understand past patterns that keep repeating. In practical terms she focuses on clear goals and steady progress.

Conversations cover symptoms, daily routines, coping strategies and small experiments to try between sessions. Communication and respect are emphasised throughout the process. Shannon helps people thinking about family issues, relationships, intimacy concerns and parenting strain.

She also addresses attachment issues, body image, caregiver stress, anger, self-esteem and loneliness. Her aim is to help people find clearer ways to cope and move forward. Therapy can include longer work or short focused planning depending on what the person wants.

Shannon encourages open discussion about aims and adapts sessions to fit each person's goals and pace.

Approaches that suit online counselling

Client-centred counselling focuses on listening, empathy and helping you set your own goals. It is useful when someone needs space to talk through worries about relationships, parenting strain or self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and actions and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage low mood and address phobias. Mindfulness therapy uses simple breathing and attention exercises to reduce stress and increase awareness of how feelings arise.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Shannon will discuss what you want to achieve and try approaches that fit your needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative - you and the counsellor review progress and adjust the plan together.

Online sessions can be held by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes fitting therapy around work, childcare or busy days easier. Phone sessions can be quicker to join when bandwidth is limited. Messaging and live chat suit short check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. Video calls allow more face-to-face conversation while remaining flexible about location.
