Background and approach
Clients can expect concrete tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and short-term problem solving alongside space to process emotional pain. Shandria brings seven years of experience working in several settings, including schools, child-welfare, nonprofit agencies, and independent practice. That background informs how she supports parenting concerns, adoption and foster-care related stress, and caregiver burnout.
She approaches work with care for family-of-origin issues, communication problems, and codependency patterns. Their approach blends Client-Centered techniques with mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing to help people explore values and stay motivated. Solution-Focused methods are used when a client wants to map small changes that lead to quick relief.
Practical exercises, skill building, and gentle reflection are common parts of sessions. Shandria holds professional credentials as LMHC and LPC and practices in Florida. Sessions are offered in English and through online formats to fit varied schedules.
She aims to meet parents where they are and help them build routines and skills that ease day-to-day life.

Approaches and online options that fit busy lives
Shandria commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in online sessions. CBT gives clear, practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and anger. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and building trust so people feel understood and can explore parenting and family-of-origin issues.She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy to help people notice stress and slow down strong reactions. Mindfulness practices often include brief breathing or attention exercises that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation during parenting challenges. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work; the therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations, while phone calls work well when bandwidth or travel are barriers. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for quick check-ins, homework review, or brief coaching between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy parent schedule and keep momentum between meetings.
