Shane Lopez, LPC

Shane Lopez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, anger, self-esteem struggles, relationship and intimacy issues, and jealousy. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, body image concerns, gender dysphoria, and questions about life purpose. Shane invites a straightforward conversation about what feels broken or confusing in life. He has nine years of experience in counseling and mental health work and holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Shane blends clear explanation with gentle challenge. He offers practical education about how thoughts and choices shape feelings and behavior. Shane’s style mixes storytelling and metaphor with direct, real conversation. He uses reframing to help people see assumptions and values more clearly. Sessions tend to be a back-and-forth where the client’s story guides the work and Shane helps point out patterns and options. Shane often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas to map thoughts and behavior. He also uses narrative and existential approaches to help people rewrite personal stories and make meaning of difficult experiences. These methods are used to address everyday problems and longer-term struggles. People who come for help can expect a nonjudgmental space where questions are treated as real and change is explored step by step. If someone wants to bring what feels strange, dark, or mysterious, Shane invites that story and helps look for clearer direction together.

How his approaches translate to online work

Shane often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy to help people untangle difficult feelings and habits. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and focuses on small, testable changes to reduce anxiety, manage cravings, or change unhelpful patterns. Narrative Therapy helps people tell their story in a new way, separating problems from the person and opening space for different choices.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shane will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That partnership includes trying an approach, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed so the work aligns with real life and values.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. For some people, remote meetings help them maintain continuity of care across locations. Licensed professionals like Shane aim to tailor session length and pacing to suit each persons routine and needs.
