About Shonda
Shonda Harris is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 18 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, anger, ADHD, addictions, grief, and related mood concerns. Her practice focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
Shonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to link thoughts, feelings, and actions. She helps people spot patterns that keep problems going and tests small changes to see what works. She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to break goals into concrete steps and build short-term plans that feel doable.
Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. Shonda talks through diagnosis and coping strategies so people can manage day-to-day challenges. She helps clients develop skills for emotion regulation, communication, and planning around impulses or mood shifts.
Many clients come for help with relationship problems, parenting stress, or career-related pressure. She also addresses issues that overlap, such as codependency, attachment concerns, and blended-family stress. The focus is on clear tools rather than long explanations.
Shonda works in English and practices in Texas. Her LPC credential is used in every session. People who want to try a different approach or pace can discuss adjustments during early meetings. The work is intended to be practical, step-based, and grounded in real-life demands.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Shonda uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and impulsivity because it breaks problems into clear parts and teaches specific skills.She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy to set short-term, achievable goals. This method focuses on what someone wants to change and builds step-by-step plans to reach those goals, which can make progress feel faster and more concrete.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shonda will discuss the options with each client and adapt methods based on the person’s goals and preferences. That collaboration helps shape which techniques are used and how quickly the pacing changes.
The practical benefit of online sessions is fitting therapy into a busy life. Confirm current session options before booking to see which formats are offered. Online meetings can reduce travel time, make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, and can suit quieter surroundings or limited bandwidth needs without requiring being on camera. These features help people maintain regular sessions around work, family, and other obligations.
