She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, family concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and depression.

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people build practical coping skills.

La'Shundra has experience supporting people who have gone through domestic violence, divorce or separation, and family-of-origin conflicts.
La'Shundra is a U.S. Army combat veteran and has worked with service members, dependents, and families. She has also been involved with Individualized Education Program (IEP) and Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) planning to support social, emotional, and behavioral goals. Her background informs her understanding of trauma and of systems that affect family life.
In sessions she focuses on concrete steps clients can try between meetings, such as communication techniques and grounding exercises. She aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking problems into small, manageable actions. People who find social situations, speaking up, or new interactions hard may find this practical emphasis helpful.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work
La'Shundra uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help with problems like anxiety, parenting strain, trauma, and family conflict. Cognitive-style approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing more helpful ones to reduce anxious reactions. Skill-based approaches teach breathing, grounding, and communication exercises that can be practiced between sessions to improve day-to-day functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying methods, checking what helps, and adjusting plans together rather than committing to a single method up front.
The therapist’s specific session formats are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can shorten travel time, allow quicker follow-ups, and make it simpler to schedule around work or caregiving. Some people find phone or video sessions helpful because they need less setup, can join from different locations, or prefer to avoid being on camera. Ask about available formats when you schedule to match sessions to your routine and needs.
