How Shawn integrates EFT, ACT and mindfulness in online work
Shawn uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with strong emotions and patterns that affect their relationships and sense of connection. EFT focuses on recognizing feelings, tracking how they shape interactions, and trying new ways to respond that improve emotional contact.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and commit to actions that match their values. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build present-moment awareness and simpler strategies for managing stress and anxiety.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Shawn will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit best for their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That decision is reviewed and adjusted as therapy progresses.
