About Shandria

Shandria Woodall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Florida with seven years of experience. She helps people who are stressed, anxious, grieving, depressed, or coping with life changes. Shandria also supports concerns around family and parenting, relationships, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, anger, intimacy-related issues, and ADHD.

She takes a straightforward, client-centered approach in sessions. Shandria focuses on building rapport first and then works with concrete strategies people can use between meetings. She draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts and solution-focused methods to set short-term goals.

Her background includes work in school-based settings, child-welfare contexts, nonprofit organizations, and private practice. That mix gives her experience with adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, family of origin and family problems, and communication or control struggles at home.

Shandria also brings practical tools such as mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing to explore change, and expressive methods when talking alone feels limiting. These options are used to address abandonment, codependency, commitment difficulties, guilt and shame, impulsivity, and isolation.

Sessions aim to identify clear next steps and to practice skills that fit everyday life. People who want to start are invited to follow the platform process to match and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Shandria uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and challenge unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress because it focuses on small, practical changes that can reduce symptoms over weeks and months.

She also uses client-centered techniques that prioritize the person’s concerns and pace. This approach emphasizes listening, reflecting, and collaboratively choosing which skills to try. Mindfulness practices are offered as a way to improve moment-to-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to stress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Shandria plans sessions together with each person and adjusts methods based on goals, preferences, and progress. That collaborative process helps clarify which strategies fit daily life.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can also use video or phone methods to focus on skill practice, problem-solving, or planning next steps.
