About Shivana
Shivana Gentry is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 13 years of clinical experience. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and focuses on practical steps to manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions. Her approach aims to build confidence and motivation while drawing on each person’s existing strengths.
She helps people who are dealing with work or career concerns, compassion fatigue, and addictive patterns.
Background and approach
She also supports those navigating parenting challenges, pregnancy and postpartum struggles, and relationship or family tensions. Anger is one of the specific areas she lists as a focus. Therapy sessions use straightforward conversation and tools.
Shivana leans on client-centered choices so people help set the agenda. She combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also incorporates mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity and Jungian ideas to explore deeper personal meaning when that fits.
The Gottman Method appears among her approaches to address communication and relationship patterns when relevant to a person's goals. Shivana emphasizes collaboration and practical change. She encourages small, doable steps and checks progress together.

How Shivana’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on following the person’s lead and building on their strengths. Online sessions using this approach let the person guide what to talk about while the therapist reflects, asks questions, and supports decision making.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying thought patterns and testing small behavioral changes. Virtually, CBT often uses worksheets, homework, and real-time problem solving to tackle anxiety, anger, and mood concerns.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm. These practices can be introduced and practiced together in an online session and then repeated between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to goals, needs, and preferences. If a particular style does not feel helpful, they adjust the plan together so sessions remain useful and focused.
