Background and approach
Sessions blend active listening with concrete tools to manage symptoms and move toward goals. Her background includes nonprofit work, school-based therapy, involvement with the child-welfare system, and independent practice. That variety shaped a flexible approach to different life challenges and stressors.
Shandria has supported people coping with family origin issues, loss, adoption and foster care questions, and caregiver stress. In sessions she commonly uses client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. She may also incorporate expressive methods when appropriate to help people process emotion and increase self-understanding.
Shandria holds the Licensed Mental Health Counselor credential and also lists Licensed Professional Counselor credentialing. She practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. Her style is collaborative and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on small, achievable changes that add up over time.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the relationship and the client’s own strengths. It involves listening carefully and following the client’s lead to build trust and clarify goals. This approach helps when people need a supportive space to talk through feelings and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses simple exercises to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Mindfulness therapy adds attention practices to help people notice the present moment and reduce overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods, and adjust based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits each person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is good for deeper conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and text are helpful for brief check-ins, quick coping strategies, or fitting therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and to practice skills between sessions.
