About Quiana
Quiana Sydnor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) credentialed in Pennsylvania and Georgia with 18 years of experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem struggles, anger, stress, career challenges, bipolar issues, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes.
She keeps sessions practical and interactive. Conversations focus on current problems and clear steps to try between meetings. She mixes cognitive behavioral ideas with client-centered listening and solution-focused thinking to help people test what works for them.
Quiana also uses motivational interviewing when people want to make changes but feel stuck. That approach helps clarify goals and build small, doable plans. She pays attention to cultural and multicultural concerns and supports people wrestling with commitment questions and compassion fatigue.
Clients can expect direct feedback and collaborative planning rather than long lectures. The work often includes practicing different ways to respond to anger, adjusting unhelpful thinking patterns, and trying short experiments to reduce stress at work or home.
Her background includes roles as a therapist, life coach, and leader of mental health and intellectual and developmental programs. That mix informs a practical, problem-focused style that aims to help people manage emotions and move toward clearer next steps.
Approaches used in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can explore what matters to them. It helps with emotional struggles and finding personal motivations for change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to spot unhelpful thinking, test different responses, and reduce strong reactions like anger or anxiety.
Motivational Interviewing is a short, goal-focused way to resolve mixed feelings about change. It helps build commitment and small plans that fit a person’s priorities.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate to choose methods that match your goals, needs, and preferences and will adjust plans as you try things and see what helps.
Confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about how to structure sessions so they fit into work breaks, caregiving routines, or other everyday demands.
