Approaches that guide online work
Shanton uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and collaboration. One approach emphasizes developing coping skills and behavior changes to reduce anxiety and manage mood swings; it helps with panic, mood disorders, and daily stress. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma in manageable steps while building safety and emotional regulation; this can help people working through past abuse, postpartum difficulties, or post-traumatic stress.Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work with the client to test methods, adjust pace, and choose what feels most helpful. This means trying concrete tools, checking how they land, and changing course when needed in a jointly agreed plan.

It can also allow shorter check-ins when a quick session is useful, or reduce travel time so people can focus on the work itself.
