How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Shawntrell draws from evidence-based techniques that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building practical skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot and reframe negative thought patterns and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with relationship conflicts and impulsive behaviors.

He also uses Motivational Interviewing to clarify what matters to a person and to support lasting change, especially in early recovery from substance use. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set small, concrete goals and track progress from session to session. Finding the best blend of these approaches is a team effort; the therapist will work with each person to tailor methods to their goals, needs, and preferences.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not listed here. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let sessions continue during life transitions so progress is maintained across change.
