Background and approach

Shana brings ten years of professional experience to her work. She holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW - and practices in Indiana. Her background includes helping people facing caregiving stress, feelings of abandonment, control issues, and struggles with isolation or midlife questions.

People who see her often want help with mood concerns, social anxiety or phobia, and issues tied to narcissistic relationships. She also supports those wrestling with forgiveness, life purpose, or recurring sleep disruption. Shana aims to make therapy straightforward and useful for everyday problems.

Her approach is collaborative and practical. She will help identify small, achievable goals and coach concrete skills to manage symptoms and improve routines. The focus is on steady steps forward, not quick fixes.

Practical approaches for online support

Shana uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear, practical change. One approach helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with more balanced thinking to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another approach emphasizes behavioral steps and routine changes to improve sleep, daily functioning, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with the client about needs, goals, and preferences and then tailor techniques that fit daily life. Together they track small steps and adjust methods as progress is made, so therapy feels relevant and doable.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible access. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching new skills. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in fits the day. Live chat and messaging let people send thoughts in moments between sessions and maintain continuity when schedules are tight. These options help make consistent work on goals easier to fit into busy lives.
