About Suandria
Suandria Houston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, trauma, and depression. She centers conversations on practical steps that can reduce daily overwhelm. Her style is warm and direct, and she works to make therapy feel manageable for busy parents.
Clients can expect a partner who listens first and builds on their strengths. Sessions focus on small changes that add up, like clearer communication, coping strategies for anxiety, and ways to rebuild trust after hurt.
Background and approach
Suandria uses plain language and concrete tools rather than technical jargon. She blends client-centered listening with evidence-based tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and relationship-focused methods. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, practice new behaviors, and improve interactions with important people in their lives.
Mindfulness practices are used to reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation. Suandria also draws on relationship work such as the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy to address communication, commitment, infidelity, and blended family issues. These approaches offer exercises and structured conversations that translate into everyday routines at home.
Her background includes a multicultural focus that respects race, ethnicity, religion, and socioeconomic differences. Suandria accepts clients in Georgia and works with international clients as well. She uses straightforward steps to begin therapy and supports each person as they try out new ways of coping and relating.

Approaches for online parenting and relationship work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client's lead. The therapist creates space for parents to describe what is most important and helps them build on their existing strengths to solve real problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, identifies unhelpful thoughts and teaches simple skills to change reactions and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress that affects daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan over time so it fits the client's life and parenting demands.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people show and talk through parenting moments in real time. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when a quieter check-in fits a brief break. Live chat and text messaging allow short, focused exchanges between sessions to practice skills and get reminders. These options help people fit therapy into school runs, work breaks, and busy schedules.
