About Shona

Shona Dyche is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 14 years of clinical experience working with people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem challenges.

Background and approach

She draws on practical, evidence-informed methods to help clients build coping skills and better manage emotions tied to anger, trauma, grief, bipolar conditions, ADHD, addictions, relationships, family issues, career stress, and self-harm to the extent they become part of therapy work. Her style blends a client-centered foundation with cognitive behavioral techniques to tailor interventions to each person’s situation.

This means she prioritizes a respectful, collaborative relationship while helping clients identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practice concrete strategies for change. Sessions aim to be pragmatic and compassionate, focused on strengthening self-understanding and resilience so clients can face day-to-day challenges with more confidence.

Shona practices in Louisiana and offers services in English. She combines warmth and clinical structure to create a therapeutic space where practical skill-building and personal exploration coexist, supporting clients as they work toward clearer goals and improved emotional balance.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Shona integrates client-centered therapy to create a collaborative relationship where the client’s perspective guides the work, emphasizing empathy, active listening, and respect for each person’s unique experience. This approach helps when people need a supportive space to explore feelings and clarify personal goals.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and change patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to emotional distress. CBT is practical and skills-oriented, often helpful for issues such as anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with anger or mood-related symptoms.

Deciding on the best therapeutic approach is part of the process and is done together with the client. The therapist will work collaboratively to match strategies to the client’s needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is made.

Online therapy with Shona is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for those balancing work, family, or mobility needs. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and fit sessions into busy schedules while allowing the same therapeutic methods to be applied across different formats.
