Shandria Woodall

Shandria Woodall is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, grief, and relationship concerns. She is a Florida LMHC and also holds a Georgia LPC credential. She brings seven years of experience across multiple settings to her work and aims to create a calm, steady space for people to talk about what matters most.

Her approach is practical and down to earth. She emphasizes building rapport and listening first, then working together on steps that feel manageable. Sessions use clear tools from approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, along with mindfulness and expressive methods when helpful. This mix can help with mood, impulse control, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.

Shandria has worked in nonprofit organizations, schools as a school-based therapist, child-welfare settings, and in private practice. That experience informs her rhythm with families, parents, and people facing caregiving or adoption-related stress. She draws on a range of techniques - talk-based strategies, art and expressive tools, and sandtray work - to meet different needs.

Her style is compassionate and straightforward. She aims to make goals concrete and to teach skills people can use between sessions. People who want practical strategies alongside emotional support may find this approach useful.

To start, she asks people to share their priorities and then co-create a plan for change. Small steps and steady progress are central to how she helps people move forward.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and creating a warm, nonjudgmental space where the person's own goals guide the work. It helps people feel heard and choose what to focus on next.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, anger, low mood, and impulse-related concerns.

Mindfulness Therapy brings simple attention and breathing practices into daily life to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation. It can pair well with CBT when someone wants tools for managing intense feelings.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss the available methods and help the person choose what fits their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice skills in their usual surroundings. Licensed professionals can adapt the chosen approaches so exercises and coping strategies translate into everyday routines.
