She also draws on Client-Centered and Narrative approaches to center each person’s story and values. Sessions are shaped around what the client wants to change. Shontrice has worked with people facing trauma, grief, and complicated family situations such as adoption or blended family stress.
She has experience addressing self-harm thoughts, Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), and the fallout of sexual assault and abuse. She brings a calm, practical manner to these sensitive topics. She aims to teach skills that can be used between sessions, like coping strategies for intense feelings and steps for rebuilding trust in relationships.
Her style balances empathy with straightforward techniques so people can try things and see what helps. Based in Tennessee, she offers sessions in English. Her background includes both individual and family work, and she adapts scheduling to fit clients’ needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person's experience first. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s lead, helping them name what matters and build plans that feel right. This approach helps with stress, relationship concerns, and finding direction when life feels confusing.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It uses short exercises and experiments to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep or eating issues because it gives clear steps to practice between sessions.
Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan as needed. That collaboration helps people figure out what works for them rather than following a fixed script.
Online sessions can be done by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for fuller conversations and visual cues. Phone works well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter updates or continued support between visits. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to keep working on goals from different settings.
