It is so helpful to have someone to talk things through after having gone through trauma. My viewpoints are often off , because my perspectives often come out of a place of woundedness. She is so good at supporting me and helping to evaluate my mindsets and thinking patterns that keep in in an unhealthy place.
More about Shonda
- 18 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am an LPC-S, trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with wide range of experience. I have many years of experience working with those with mental health issues such as depression, bi-polar disorder, anxiety, and ADHD. I will help you to understand your diagnosis and how to build coping skills. I also work with individuals experiencing relationship problems, struggling to reach goals, or seeking behavioral changes.
I will help you understand the relationship of your thoughts, actions, and feelings. We will work to find what changes you want to make and how to best make that happen.
I enjoy working with diverse populations and have a non-judgmental approach. It is important to me that you feel safe and free to express yourself.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Shonda was so easy to share with. She was relatable in so many ways. Our sessions were so important and helpful in coping with life and past traumas.
She is awesome! I have had many A-ha moments, definitely best decision I've made
She’s a good therapist. My problems right now beyond this type of help.
Shonda is fun and very knowledgeable. I feel like I can relate to her and she make me feel good about wanting to come to therapy good and easy to talk to her.
Shonda is the best therapist I've ever worked with, she takes the time to get to know you and really makes you feel like she cares.
There are no words! I have been in an out of therapy my whole life and never has anyone been able to truly help me the way she has! She is very non biased and walks along side you to help you get through whatever you need! I feel so blessed and thankful that for the first time in my almost 40 years of life I have found someone that can truly help me!
Excellent
Shonda is wonderful. I immediately felt comfortable talking to her and she truly has a plan to help me.
Shonda is always there for me and always helps me to understand why I feel how I am feeling and she always gives me the tools I need to get through my issues. I am so appreciative of her and all she has done for me.
Shonda is the best she really makes you feel heard and helps you work through things!
Great listener! Able to comprehend well and ask the right questions.
I love Shonda! She always makes me feel like I'm talking to a friend. instead of being judged by a therapist. Talking to her is very comfortable and casual. She's very intuitive and would often point out new things for me to consider that was insightful.
She is a very good listener and supports very well.
Shonda is amazing. I couldn't make it without her.
Absolutely LOVE Mrs. Harris! She is amazing and understands me to the dot. I feel very comfortable expressing myself and letting things out when I’m a session with her. Definitely would recommend to give her!
She’s great!
I've been in therapy with Shonda for 2 weeks now. But I felt a huge difference with just the first session. She is understanding and a great listener! She has helped me put things into perspective, identify my true self and grow into a better person.
Every week I look forward to our sessions
I have had 3 sessions so far and I am very happy with our communication. I really feel heard and understood. I love the feedback on my journal entries I send and her suggestions on what I can work on until our next session that might be helpful with what I am dealing with. Definitely am enjoying working with Shonda.
Shondra has really opened my mind and helped me so much already
Shonda is kind and caring. I have had a couple of sessions but can tell she is passionate about helping people.
Shonda Harris is a great counselor. She understands my concerns and needs. She always knows what to say and gives great advice/stories. You’ll never feel alone and will always feel heard with her.
She is amazing and kind.
I love Shonda so much. She is so knowledgeable and helpful. She understands me as a woman, a Christian, and a creative. I would 100% recommend her to everyone.
Shonda is literally my first positive experience with counseling. I’ve tried seeing others before, but I’ve always found myself not committing to sessions. My previous experiences with counselors have felt very sterile and methodical. With Shonda, she creates a really safe environment, is clear and kind about things that are tough to hear from others (which I super need), and relates to me as a human. I’ve only had a few sessions with her thus far, but I’m looking forward to all the potential rabbit holes we’ll be diving into that I’ve been wanting to talk with someone about for so long.
Shonda Harris is been helping me a lot with good advices.
Shonda is extremely understandable and relatable to my experience. She doesn’t just offer advice but gives me the tools and confidence to change my situation.
