About Nashonna
Nashonna Turner is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 25 years of practice. She works with people facing relationship strains, family stress, low self-esteem, depression, life changes, and anger. Nashonna also helps with communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety.
She centers sessions on clear, direct conversation and practical steps. Nashonna listens for the patterns that keep problems repeating and then helps people try different responses. Sessions often include learning new ways to speak up, set boundaries, or notice thoughts that fuel anger or shame.
Her clinical work uses methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, along with Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas. That means she combines talking through feelings with short actions to test what works in daily life. The focus is on small experiments you can take home and try between meetings.
Nashonna pays attention to the role of relationships and attachment in how people react when stressed or upset. She helps clients name the roots of their reactions and practice different ways of relating to others. Many people find that improving communication reduces the build-up of resentment and frequent outbursts.
Practical concerns such as coping with life changes and building self-worth get concrete plans. She works in a straightforward way to help people notice progress, adjust strategies, and build skills they can use at work and at home.
How her approaches translate to online work
Nashonna uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice painful thoughts and commit to actions that reflect their values. ACT is useful when anger or avoidance gets in the way of relationships and life goals. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. CBT makes it easier to spot triggers, try different responses, and measure what changes in daily life. Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work together. She reviews your needs, goals, and preferences and then suggests practices to try. That collaboration continues as you see what helps and what needs adjusting. Confirm what session options are offered before booking since the original biography does not list specific formats. Many people choose online sessions because they can fit appointments into busy schedules, shorten commutes, or pick quieter times that work around errands or work breaks. Some formats may make it easier to have a brief check-in or to meet without being on camera; check the booking details to learn which options are provided.Areas of expertise
