Approaches and Online Care with Shauna Holder

Shauna integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) into her online practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s goals and experiences guide the process - it helps with self-exploration, decision-making, and strengthening personal resilience. CBT is a practical, skills-based approach that helps clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns - it is effective for anxiety, depression, and many everyday concerns. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness - it supports those managing intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Shauna collaborates with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors strategies and techniques that fit the client’s life and priorities. This collaborative process helps ensure therapy feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Shauna is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and continuity of care. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain momentum between sessions, and access support from the familiarity of one’s home or workplace, while working with a licensed professional to address stress, relationships, mood, and life transitions.
