About Shawn

Shawn Blakley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with 30 years of professional experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, and depression. He brings a steady, experienced approach to supporting individuals through grief, anger, self-esteem concerns, codependency, and a range of process and substance-related addictions. Shawn focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental environment where thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and explored together.

He draws on client-centered principles to prioritize the person's experience and on cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. Shawn aims to meet each person where they are, tailoring interventions to practical goals and everyday challenges. He recognizes that taking the first step toward therapy often requires courage and treats that decision with respect and care. Whether addressing relationship dynamics, mood disorders, or addictive behaviors, Shawn offers decades of experience and a steady presence to help clients work toward clearer direction and greater emotional balance.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Shawn integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) into his online practice. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and responding to the client's experience so the individual feels heard and validated; it is often useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, and building emotional insight. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, or addictive habits and working to replace them with more helpful alternatives.



Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Shawn collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so care remains tailored and practical.



Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - which can make attending sessions easier around work, family, and daily commitments. These options increase accessibility for people who need consistent support while balancing other responsibilities, and they allow licensed professionals to use the same therapeutic tools and exercises in formats that suit each person's life.
