I have many years of experience working with those with mental health issues such as depression, bi-polar disorder, anxiety, and ADHD. I will help you to understand your diagnosis and how to build coping skills.

I love Shonda! She always makes me feel like I'm talking to a friend. instead of being judged by a therapist. Talking to her is very comfortable and casual. She's very intuitive and would often point out new things for me to consider that was insightful.

I've been in therapy with Shonda for 2 weeks now. But I felt a huge difference with just the first session. She is understanding and a great listener! She has helped me put things into perspective, identify my true self and grow into a better person.

I have had 3 sessions so far and I am very happy with our communication. I really feel heard and understood. I love the feedback on my journal entries I send and her suggestions on what I can work on until our next session that might be helpful with what I am dealing with. Definitely am enjoying working with Shonda.

I love Shonda so much. She is so knowledgeable and helpful. She understands me as a woman, a Christian, and a creative. I would 100% recommend her to everyone.

Written by D.A. on Mar 17, 2021 after therapy with Shonda for 2 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger management, bipolar disorder, and adhd

Shonda is literally my first positive experience with counseling. I’ve tried seeing others before, but I’ve always found myself not committing to sessions. My previous experiences with counselors have felt very sterile and methodical. With Shonda, she creates a really safe environment, is clear and kind about things that are tough to hear from others (which I super need), and relates to me as a human. I’ve only had a few sessions with her thus far, but I’m looking forward to all the potential rabbit holes we’ll be diving into that I’ve been wanting to talk with someone about for so long.

Written by M.A. on Mar 16, 2021 after therapy with Shonda for 2 weeks on issues concerning parenting issues

Shonda Harris is been helping me a lot with good advices.

Written by A.N. on Mar 14, 2021 after therapy with Shonda for 1 month on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes

Shonda is extremely understandable and relatable to my experience. She doesn’t just offer advice but gives me the tools and confidence to change my situation.

Work with me!
