About Steven

Steven Shampain brings an insight-driven, hope-oriented approach to therapy that emphasizes understanding the reasons behind thoughts and behaviors to support meaningful change. As an LPC and LMHC with ten years of experience, he aims to help clients discover personal agency and practical pathways toward mental wellness.

Background and approach

His style blends exploration of values and motivation with skills-based work to foster resilience and forward progress. Shampain works with people facing a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, parenting issues, career questions, and ADHD.

He also addresses addiction-related concerns, codependency, men's issues, and identity matters such as LGBT-related stress. Known for an open, nonjudgmental presence, he is willing to share personal experience when it helps build trust and connection and can engage in topics like politics or religion when they affect a client's well being.

Based in Tennessee, Shampain offers multiple online session formats to fit different schedules and preferences. He encourages those ready to make a change to take the first step toward support and to explore a collaborative path to growth and improved coping.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and take committed action toward a meaningful life while learning to relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and teaching practical tools to change those patterns and reduce symptoms. Mindfulness-based ideas are woven into sessions to increase present-moment awareness and build emotional regulation skills that support coping with stress and anxiety.

Finding the right combination of methods is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify which approaches match their goals, preferences, and life context, adjusting the plan over time based on what proves helpful in practice.

Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to keep continuity of care when life is busy or circumstances change, while allowing therapists and clients to focus on progress through regular, accessible contact.
