About Shae
Shae holds certification in trauma-informed care and is certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy - a skills-based approach that helps people manage intense emotions and improve interpersonal effectiveness. She has received training in Brainspotting phases 1 and 2, an intervention that can support processing of traumatic memories, and she is currently completing training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT) to further enhance her couples work. Before becoming a therapist, Shae accumulated mental health experience in a variety of settings since 2017, including roles at a homeless shelter and at an eating disorder clinic, bringing a broad view of community-based care to her clinical work.
Shae combines her clinical training and community experience to offer practical, skills-oriented support for clients navigating stress, mood concerns, relationship strains, and the lasting effects of trauma.
DBT, Trauma-Informed Care, and Online Support
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, focuses on practical skills for managing intense emotions, reducing impulsive reactions, and improving relationships. It is often used for people dealing with overwhelming stress, anger, or difficulty regulating mood. Trauma-informed care emphasizes awareness of past trauma and aims to create a therapeutic process that acknowledges how trauma can shape thoughts, feelings, and behavior; this approach supports safety, pacing, and respect for each person's experience. Brainspotting is a targeted method used to access and process traumatic memories by identifying eye positions that correspond with emotional material, and it can be helpful for people struggling with lingering trauma symptoms or emotional blocks.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Shae collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review options, try appropriate techniques, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging allow clients to schedule support around work, caregiving, and daily life. These formats increase access to licensed professionals and make it easier to maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are not possible, while still enabling meaningful therapeutic progress.
