How therapy approaches translate to online care

Shanton works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and patterns. One common approach focuses on building coping skills and step-by-step strategies for managing anxiety, panic, and everyday stress. This involves identifying triggers, practicing breathing and grounding techniques, and creating short plans to reduce distress.

Another approach centers on trauma-informed methods that help people process painful events at a manageable pace. This work uses grounding, paced processing, and safety planning to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories and reactions over time.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. The therapist and client will review symptoms, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's needs. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress and feedback guide the plan.
