More about Shavanah

  • 4 years' experience

  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Louisiana, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My clinical approach centers on compassionate, evidence-based care for those experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. I understand the profound challenges of social isolation, relationship difficulties, and personal growth.

My therapeutic work focuses on helping clients develop resilient communication skills, process challenging emotions like guilt and shame, and heal from past experiences. I offer a supportive approach that honors each person's unique journey.

I am dedicated to creating a safe, understanding environment where individuals can explore their inner world, develop healthy coping strategies, and move toward meaningful personal transformation. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, relationship challenges, or seeking to understand yourself more deeply, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional expertise.

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.
