About Shawna

Shawna Lupori is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with eight years of clinical experience. She aims to create a calm, dependable space where people can talk about hard things and begin to move forward. Shawna focuses on practical steps and honest conversation rather than jargon.

She emphasizes respect and steadiness in sessions so clients feel heard and understood. Shawna often addresses anxiety, stress, depression, and issues around addiction.

Background and approach

She also helps with relationship strain, family problems, grief, and changes that come with life transitions. Sessions may include work on self-esteem, coping skills, anger, and questions about life purpose. She pays attention to how overlapping problems like co-morbidity, codependency, and substance use affect daily life.

Her style adapts to each person. Shawna draws on Client-Centered methods and techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people recognize patterns and try new approaches. She also uses Existential ideas to look at meaning and values when that feels useful.

Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused techniques are available for people ready to set goals and make changes. In sessions Shawna listens, asks clear questions, and suggests small, doable steps. She balances practical skill-building with conversations about values and purpose.

That combination helps people manage symptoms now while working toward longer term shifts. Shawna provides care in English and works with adults on a range of everyday and complex concerns. She practices from Pennsylvania and integrates her varied experience to meet each person where they are.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Shawna uses Client-Centered Therapy to center sessions on each person's experience and goals. That approach emphasizes warm listening and helping people notice their own strengths so they can make choices that fit their values.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns. CBT offers practical tools for anxiety, depression, and many everyday problems by teaching small, testable changes people can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shawna will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will try methods that match those priorities. She adjusts methods over time so the work stays relevant and useful.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and styles. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who prefer written communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, childcare, or other routines while keeping the focus on practical progress.
