About Shantia

Shantia Morgan is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on family and parenting concerns alongside a broad range of personal and relational issues. She draws on five years of experience to help people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and challenges around parenting.

She aims to make the first step easier by offering a calm, straightforward opening to therapy where people can start talking about what matters most.

Background and approach

Her style centers on listening closely and building a trusting conversation. She creates space for honest talk about feelings and practical steps forward. Sessions are intended to be nonjudgmental and focused on what a person or family needs right now.

Shantia uses a mix of approaches tailored to each situation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns that contribute to anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation grounded in the client’s own priorities and strengths.

Solution-Focused Therapy supports quick, real-world goal setting for problems like communication or parenting challenges. She also brings attention to issues such as ADHD, addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy and anger, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of focus include adoption and foster care, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and body image.

Those seeking help can expect a practical, people-centered process that aims to address both immediate concerns and longer-term coping. Shantia offers sessions in English and practices as an LPC holding TX LPC 88057 and OR LPC C9566. She works with clients in Texas and does not take international clients.

Therapeutic approaches that work well online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship, letting the client set the priorities and pace for change. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to talk through feelings or family concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect, and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, low mood, and patterns that affect relationships and parenting.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose and adapt methods based on personal goals, preferences, and the issues presented. That means trying techniques, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging are all options. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy family schedules and keep continuity when life gets in the way. They also allow therapists to use worksheets, brief exercises, and follow-up messages to support progress between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

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.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
