About Shane
Shane Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with nine years of clinical experience. He works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, relationship problems, career concerns, depression, ADHD, and other life changes. He also supports those coping with issues related to gender identity, sexual culture, body image, and family-origin concerns.
Shane’s sessions are conversational and practical. He mixes education with reframing so clients can recognize patterns that keep them stuck. He often uses storytelling and metaphor to help people name confusing feelings and make them easier to talk about.
In session he focuses on concrete steps as well as meaning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from difficult stories they carry. Existential ideas are used when clients are wrestling with purpose, responsibility, or big life questions.
Shane aims to be direct without being shaming. He helps people talk through resentment, sudden outbursts, chronic irritability, and the fallout anger causes in relationships. He also supports people facing addiction and trauma-related difficulties alongside anger and impulsivity.
He trained at the masters level in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and holds the LPC credential from the Louisiana LPC Board. Sessions are in English and he accepts international clients. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How his approaches translate to online work
Shane commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anger, anxiety, and addiction. Narrative Therapy helps people tell and retell their personal stories so problems can be separated from identity and handled more clearly.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shane will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. He adapts techniques as sessions progress and checks in about what feels useful and what does not.
Confirm the session formats available before booking since his biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or choosing audio-only contact when video is difficult. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
