How evidence-based techniques translate to online therapy

LaShonda draws on widely used, evidence-based techniques to guide her work. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Acceptance and commitment style work helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck and then take action in line with their values, useful for stress, grief, and life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will discuss options with each person, try methods tailored to goals, and adjust the plan as progress is tracked. Clients help choose what feels most useful and practical for their life.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use therapies and tools in the places where they live and work, making skill practice more immediate and relevant.
