About Shane

He works with people managing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, addiction, grief, and issues around self-esteem and intimacy. He also addresses career struggles, life changes, anger, bipolar-related challenges, and related problems such as abandonment or isolation.

He aims to help people name difficult emotions and try different ways of responding to them.

In sessions Shane typically blends talk and skill practice. He helps people notice patterns in relationships and reactions, works on clearer communication, and offers exercises to manage intense feelings. He also supports people coping with major life changes and grief, and helps sort through career or purpose questions.

How Shane integrates therapy approaches in online work

Shane often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name hard-to-recognize emotions and the patterns those emotions create in relationships. EFT in this context focuses on noticing emotional responses and trying new ways of connecting or reacting when feelings run high.

He also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify values and take manageable steps toward them even when feelings are uncomfortable. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and to practice concrete behavior changes that reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shane discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts the mix of methods based on what is most helpful. He works together with clients to decide which techniques to try and how to apply them between sessions.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so readers should confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If someone prefers a specific setup, they can check the booking flow and the matching questionnaire to see what is offered.
