Shandria Woodall

Shandria Woodall is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, career questions, parenting strain, grief, trauma, and related concerns. She brings a calm, direct style to sessions and focuses on practical steps you can use right away.

She uses a mix of evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. She listens first, then helps identify small changes that add up over time.

Shandria has seven years of experience in mental health work across nonprofit settings, schools as a school-based therapist, the child-welfare system, and private practice. That range informs how she supports people through life transitions and caregiving stress.

Her approach values building rapport, offering empathy, and creating a steady space for people to talk through painful experiences. Techniques may include mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, expressive methods, and practical skill work to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning.

People seek her help for parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy issues, anger and impulse control, ADHD concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and isolation. She frames therapy as a partnership and works with each person to set achievable goals and steps toward change.

How her approaches translate to online work

Shandria commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying specific experiments and behavioral changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and meeting a person where they are to build trust and clarify goals.

She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to help with stress and emotional regulation by teaching simple attention and breathing practices. Choosing the right approach is collaborative; she will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences rather than imposing one model.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It may cut out travel time, allow shorter check-ins around work breaks, and let people use talk-based or mindfulness methods without commuting. Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking to ensure they match your needs.
