About LaShonya
Dr. LaShonya Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 22 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with anger, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related concerns. Her work also covers stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, parenting, self-esteem, and depression.
She starts by listening closely and treating the person in front of her as the expert on their life. Sessions focus on practical steps and on recognizing existing strengths. She uses conversation and guided reflection to make sense of patterns that keep causing frustration and conflict.
Dr. Williams draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the client's concerns and goals. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try alternative responses. Those approaches are used to address anger, communication problems, control issues, and related stressors.
Over two decades in practice has included work with issues such as divorce and separation, domestic violence, family of origin problems, first responder stress, isolation, and money concerns. She helps people work through difficult emotions and rebuild more manageable routines.
Practical steps in sessions can include learning new ways to respond to triggers, clearer communication skills, and small behavior changes that reduce recurring tension. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to set goals and priorities.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's concerns. Online sessions using this approach center the client's goals, allowing the therapist to reflect what matters and help the client set priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In an online setting CBT can involve reviewing recent situations, testing alternative responses, and assigning short practical exercises between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work and will happen collaboratively. The therapist will discuss what techniques fit the client's goals and adjust the plan over time based on what is useful and workable for the person.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit therapy into busy lives by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and making it easier to schedule around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can use conversation and structured exercises effectively at a distance, helping people practice new responses to anger and communication problems while balancing day-to-day demands.
