More about LaShaunn
- 4 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I have been a practicing Social Worker for nearly 30 years in the DFW area. In addition to my practice experience, my 20 years of experience as a faculty member at a local university allows me to empathize and support young adults who may be transitioning from college to work. I also have extensive experience working with families of all ages who have difficulties with stress and communication. I specialize in working with individuals and families to heal and join together to become healthy, whole members of their homes and communities. I believe I encourage others to successfully navigate what can often be a difficult life path. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy, & talk therapy. I use solution focused methods and educate clients on how to use that will help develop long term success. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is a working team that begins with assessing the situation, setting goals, and developing a plan. I can help any person who has difficulty with relationships at home or work. I am available for individuals who feel emotionally overwhelmed and misdirected. My passion is helping others help themselves. I look forward to working together to help you navigate life. Once you have selected to work with me, I will contact you within 24 hours to get started. I will likely contact you sooner than that. However, if it is an emergency, please follow the guidelines indicated for clients of BetterHelp. Call 911 if you believe you are in a crisis situation. Again, I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Amazing counselor! Listens well, good guidance
Thankful and Grateful to GOD for her she’s wonderful and really is a huge help
LaShaunn has been a comforting presence in our sessions. It's so nice to talk with her, and she's not afraid to say something even if she think it might upset me if she believes it's important to hear. She is kind and open and good at adapting the session based on the needs of the time. She gives me worksheets if I want them but doesn't pressure me if I don't complete them, and she encourages me to get out and try new things, as well as reminding me of the progress I'm making and the strengths I have. I've really enjoyed working with her.
I look forward to my sessions and sharing progress. She has helped me understand my feelings.
LaShaunn is a gem! Talking to her is like talking to a friend. I love the advice she gives and the way she walks me through each problem. 10/10 recommend.
LaShaunn is a great therapist. She is friendly and cordial but not afraid to challenge you. She helps me break away from “stuck” cycles of thinking. I like the homework she provides as well. I would recommend her to anyone, especially if you are Bipolar like me.
I have had a single conversation with her. I do not know her well enough to make any assessment.
LaShaunn is very responsive and specific about what can help me, and she follows up with a recap of the session! This is super helpful! I am blessed to have her as my counselor.
LaShaunn is a gift from the Lord and is amazing spiritual based counselor. Is what I needed in my life to continue my growth and transformation. Eternally Grateful!
She's incredibly insightful, she has a way of understanding me without fully knowing me and over message! So far she has been a lot of help, more than she knows and im looking forward to growing with her
I’m beyond grateful for her guidance as a clinician and Christian!
Love love love her!
LaShaunn has been such a supportive therapist and has provided amazing insight in terms of organizational skills and self-improvement. One of the things I love is how after every meeting she sends a recap, which helps see where I’m standing and what I’ve shared during our meetings. She’s incredibly encouraging, smart, and provides so many resources. I’m so glad to have her as my therapist.
She is an extremely gifted counselor. Very intuitive, calm, informed, and has a talent for counseling. I am so happy I did this.
LaShaunn has helped me so much during these last several months of quarantine. With her help I have grown more than I ever thought I could, and have made it through some challenging times. She always goes above and beyond to come up with new ways to help me cope with difficult emotions. So thankful for her and everything she does!
LaShaunn is very intuitive and insightful. I enjoy the way she challenges me to consider alternative perspectives.
LaShaunn is knowledgeable, highly perceptive, and caring.
LaShaunn is great, she’s super kind, very supportive, it’s my first counseling experience and she has helped me accomplish a great deal, I am very thankful towards her and this entire process.
LaShaunn has been wonderful about being proactive in helping me develop a game plan for how to escape some of the bad situations I'm in, validating my feelings, encouraging me to do what is best for me no matter how hard it is and giving me homework so I can continue making progress even when I'm not talking with her. Very compassionate and empathetic!
