About Shandria
Shandria Woodall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of experience. She practices in Florida and helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, and challenges related to parenting and family. She also supports those navigating career uncertainty, intimacy issues, ADHD, and major life changes.
Shandria uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to each person, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking that affect mood and behavior. Mindfulness techniques are used to practice being present and reduce overwhelm. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy help people set realistic goals and take small steps forward.
Her background includes work with nonprofits, in school settings as a school-based therapist, in the child-welfare system, and in private practice. That range shaped an ability to work with different life contexts and stressors. Sessions often focus on clear skills such as communication, coping strategies, boundary setting, and steps to manage anger or impulsivity.
Shandria tends to keep sessions direct and action-oriented. People can expect to talk about current concerns, try out practical tools during sessions, and review progress between meetings. She pays attention to family of origin issues, adoption or foster care experiences, abandonment themes, and caregiver stress when they appear.
Shandria offers therapy in English and serves adults in Florida. If you are an adult facing the pressures of early adulthood or juggling work and family, she can help you sort priorities and build workable habits.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Shandria uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and respond to what each person brings. This approach focuses on understanding the person's perspective and building a working relationship that shapes the work together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and tests small behavior changes to improve mood and daily functioning. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. Sessions can shift over time if needs change, and goals are reviewed regularly so the work stays practical and relevant.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, remove travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused steps to a remote setting so the work remains focused on everyday challenges.
