About Shironda
Shironda Bryant is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) licensed in North Carolina with 21 years of experience in counseling. She has worked in a variety of settings since 2005 and has been practicing in North Carolina since 2012. Shironda helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, parenting challenges, anger, ADHD, trauma and intimacy-related issues.
Her background includes work in prisons, courts, schools, hospitals, and an army base, and she draws on that broad experience when meeting people. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to what matters most to the person in the room. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and practical changes that can reduce distress.
Shironda describes her overall approach as existential, which means she focuses on how people make meaning and find direction in their lives. She also incorporates Motivational Interviewing to help people find motivation for change and Solution-Focused techniques to set short-term goals. These methods are used together to address issues like blended family difficulties, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiver stress, and communication problems.
Sessions typically involve straightforward conversation, goal setting, and practical steps to try between meetings. She works with adults confronting divorce and separation, forgiveness issues, control and commitment concerns, and young adult transitions. The tone is direct and respectful, with attention to the everyday demands of parenting and household life.
If you are an English-speaking adult in North Carolina facing family or parenting stress, Shironda offers experience-based support and practical tools to help you manage daily pressures and relationship challenges.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Shironda uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on what matters most to the person she meets. That approach means listening carefully and shaping sessions around the client's concerns, whether that is parenting strain, relationship tension, or everyday stress. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical changes between sessions. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and behavior patterns that affect family life.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will work with each client to figure out which methods fit their needs and goals. That collaboration includes discussing what feels doable in day-to-day life and setting short-term steps to try between meetings.
Session formats are not listed in the profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it simpler to fit sessions around work and family obligations, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins that are easier to schedule. It also lets people use quieter surroundings or shorter telephone check-ins when a full video session does not fit the day.
