About Shona
Shona Dyche is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 14 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and related concerns.

Clients can expect a calm, practical approach in sessions. She listens first and helps people name what feels most urgent.
How Shona works
Then she and the client decide on steps to try, often using straightforward behavioral skills and problem-solving. Sessions aim to give tools people can use between meetings. Her style blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, so conversation and skill-building both have a place.
That means she makes space for clients to talk through experiences while also introducing simple exercises to change thoughts and actions that cause distress. Shona prioritizes a respectful, nonjudgmental tone. She focuses on clear goals and measurable steps toward them.
Progress is usually discussed in plain language and adjusted as needed. She offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. People who want to begin can use the site's Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a session based on the therapist's availability.

Approaches that translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's experience without judgment. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects back what she hears, and helps clients find their own solutions. It is useful for people who need a steady, accepting space to sort through emotions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses short, practical exercises to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Work might include practicing new ways of thinking, tracking mood and actions, and trying specific behavior changes between sessions. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, stress, and problems with impulse control.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit the situation, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay useful and focused on real needs.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face to face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can be a good lower-bandwidth option or fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, short skill practice, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life while keeping focus on progress and skill building.
