Shawna Rhymes-Danielson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 10 years of professional experience.

She has supported people facing stress and anxiety, parenting challenges, low motivation, self-esteem and confidence concerns, and the transitions that come with life changes. Her work centers on practical guidance and compassionate listening to help clients develop greater resilience and clarity.

Shawna cultivates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be expressed and explored. She recognizes that reaching out for support takes courage and partners with clients throughout the process, offering steady encouragement as they pursue a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Shawna often draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy to guide her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them, then identify values-based steps to move forward - it is often useful for anxiety, motivation, and coping with life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns formed early in life and explores how those patterns affect current relationships and parenting, offering a path to greater connection and understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Shawna works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions so that therapy feels relevant and practical for the individual or family.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility for people with busy schedules or varied locations. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these formats to maintain continuity of care, make sessions more accessible, and support progress in ways that fit a client's daily life.
