He is attentive and really listens with full understanding. He doesn't beat around the bush and helps get to the root of the issue with making you feel like you don't know yourself. I've been in therapy for 18 years and he's one of the best I've had. I'd recommend him to anyone!

I came to better health and chose Shane as my counselor because I was having relationship problems with my significant other, & in just 3 sessions, Shane has helped me increase my self awareness, reflect which helped me hold myself accountable with my own actions. This resulted in having a better relationship with my boyfriend, having clarity & peace of mind. If I feel like I need to work with a therapist again in the future, Shane would be my therapist to go to again.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
