About Shandi

Shandi Lindsey is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Oregon who works with people managing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She emphasizes compassionate, evidence-informed care and combines practical tools with empathic support to help clients address guilt, shame, and mood-related difficulties.

Background and approach

Her work often centers on helping individuals make sense of painful experiences and build day-to-day coping strategies that promote steady progress. Bringing six years of clinical experience, Shandi blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to tailor care to each person’s needs.

She encourages curiosity about one's patterns and partners with clients to identify realistic goals, develop skills for emotion regulation, and foster resilience after setbacks. Her approach seeks to balance practical problem-solving with attention to the person’s values and life context, supporting steady movement toward emotional well-being.

Practical approaches for online emotional healing

Shandi integrates cognitive behavioral techniques and client-centered care to guide online work in straightforward, applicable ways. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help reduce anxiety, manage mood symptoms, and address patterns that maintain stress or addictive behaviors. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring values and goals that guide their healing.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work together with each client to determine which combination of techniques suits their needs and preferences, adjusting methods as goals evolve so the work remains meaningful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more accessible and flexible. These options allow clients to access consistent support from home or other convenient locations, fit sessions around busy schedules, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable while working on stress, trauma recovery, addiction challenges, or mood concerns.
