About Lashanda

Lashanda Robertson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside mood and stress-related issues. She offers straightforward support for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar symptoms, and challenges that come with life transitions.

Her tone is warm and direct, aimed at parents and caregivers who want practical help they can use right away. In sessions she uses clear, evidence-based methods to help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach coping skills, manage strong emotions, and build healthier routines. Conversations are tailored to each person’s situation and goals. Her counseling style is interactive and respectful.

She avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on realistic steps a person can take between appointments. Expect concrete tools, gentle challenge, and focused plans for progress. With two decades of experience as a therapist, Lashanda combines practical skill with compassion.

She has worked across multiple settings and with many kinds of problems tied to relationships, parenting, and emotional health. Her LPC credential reflects training and licensure in Georgia. Sessions are offered in English and provided online through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and changing behaviors that keep problems going. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and practical parenting challenges by offering concrete exercises and coping strategies.

DBT, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy, teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills. It helps when strong emotions or frequent conflict make daily life harder, and it offers tools to manage urges and communicate more clearly.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs. Together you will adjust strategies as you learn what works best for your situation.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit counseling into busy family schedules and to keep continuity when life gets hectic. They also allow for quick check-ins between sessions and the use of written tools and exercises that reinforce skill-building.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
