How Shawyna works
She also offers coaching for people who want practical support alongside therapy.

She supports women navigating major transitions such as divorce or changing roles at work.
Her practice also addresses aging and geriatric concerns, body image, and feelings of isolation. Therapeutic work draws on client-centered methods, narrative techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. These approaches are used to explore personal stories, build motivation for change, and identify concrete steps forward.
Sessions are tailored to each person’s goals and pace. She provides services through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and fees vary by location and scheduling factors.

Approaches for change in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's perspective. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people find their own solutions; this is useful for building self-esteem and processing difficult emotions.Motivational interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and strengthen internal motivation. It uses guided conversation to reduce resistance and set realistic goals, which can help with stress, coping, and behavior change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then try approaches that fit the person's needs. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, each offering practical benefits. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people share thoughts between sessions and fit therapy into busy days. These options increase flexibility and help people keep regular contact with a licensed professional.
