How her approaches can translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person at the center of care. It helps clients feel heard and decide what goals matter most to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that lead to small, steady change. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a paced method sometimes used for trauma-related memories and reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shaneka will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. She explains options and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, reduce travel time, and let people connect from a quieter place. Some formats can allow shorter check-ins or sessions without video when that better fits the day. Licensed professionals can use these options to help people keep momentum between sessions and practice skills in real life.
