Evidence-based approaches, made accessible online

Shannon Salgado draws from approaches that help clients build insight and practical skills while staying connected to what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another, and it can be especially useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns that keep clients feeling stuck.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports clients in making room for difficult emotions while taking steps toward values-driven choices. Rather than fighting every uncomfortable feeling, ACT helps people clarify what they want their life to stand for and practice new ways of responding to challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills like emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can support clients navigating intense feelings, relationship strain, or impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Shannon collaborates with clients to identify what fits best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Therapy can be adjusted over time as new insights and priorities emerge.

Online therapy with Shannon offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to access support around busy schedules, travel, or day-to-day demands.
