Approaches and how online sessions are handled
Shonta works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a trauma-informed, culturally responsive stance. Cognitive-behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments; this can help with social anxiety, sleep problems, and managing anger. Skills-based methods teach concrete coping strategies for stress, cravings, or overwhelm, such as grounding, activity planning, and problem-solving for relationship conflicts.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences, and the practical challenges you bring. Together you will try methods that match what you need and adjust the plan if something is not working.

Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, manage short check-ins, or avoid travel time. If you want, mention practical needs when you complete the matching questionnaire and the therapist can suggest ways to structure sessions that fit your routine.
