About Shantia

Shantia Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She supports adults who are facing stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and parenting challenges. She also works with people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder, and struggles with addiction and ADHD.

Shantia uses straightforward conversation to help people sort through what is happening at home and in their minds. She aims to create an open setting where clients can say what they are feeling and thinking. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than jargon or long theory discussions.

Her approach draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow the client's lead and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. She also uses Solution-Focused and Existential ideas to help people set short-term goals and think about values and meaning when life changes are hard.

Typical concerns include parenting strain, family conflict, intimacy-related issues, communication problems, and the stress that comes with caregiving or chronic illness. She also lists additional topics such as adoption and foster care, attachment issues, body image, and commitment problems.

Shantia works in English and sees clients based in Texas. The profile notes that sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, readers are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters to the client. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist reflect back concerns and priorities so a person can clarify what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Delivered remotely, CBT often uses short exercises, thought records, and practical homework to test new ways of thinking and acting.

Finding the best approach is part of working together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. That conversation guides whether to emphasize CBT techniques, client-led listening, or solution-focused steps in future sessions.

The profile does not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use different online tools and worksheets during the week to practice skills between sessions.
