More about Shana

Hi there, I'm Shana (she/her).

As a person-centred counsellor, I put you (the client) at the heart of the therapeutic experience. For me, this means taking things at your pace, and supporting you in any difficulties or challenges you want to address. I do this in an empathic and warm way. The power of listening can be so empowering.

I believe that each individual is deserving of support. Our mental and emotional wellbeing have huge impacts on how we see the world and how we live our lives, so it makes sense that we can struggle when our worlds feel a bit unbalanced. I think that therapy can be a powerful tool to help achieve balance and stability, helping us to feel a bit more 'okay'.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
