About Sundra

Sundra White is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges. She centers sessions on building self-compassion and clearer communication. Her style aims to make difficult problems easier to talk about and handle.

Sundra brings 11 years of clinical experience in Louisiana to her work. She uses practical methods to help clients cope with life changes, grief, addiction issues, and mood concerns like bipolar disorder.

Background and approach

Sessions often include concrete skills for managing intense feelings and reducing everyday stress. Her approach respects each persons background, including spiritual or faith perspectives when desired. Sundra listens first, then adapts tools to fit each persons values and daily life.

She combines evidence-based techniques with a warm, nonjudgmental manner. Common topics addressed in her practice include relationships, parenting challenges, eating concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, and self-esteem. Treatment blends short-term strategies and longer-term work based on what a person needs.

Sundra aims to help people take manageable steps toward healthier routines. In sessions clients can expect conversational, straightforward guidance paired with skills practice. She draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered approaches, Mindfulness, and Narrative Therapy.

The goal is practical change you can use between sessions.

Practical therapy approaches for online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. The therapist creates an accepting space and follows the client's lead to clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches straightforward tools to change unhelpful habits; it is helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sundra will collaborate with the client to pick methods that match needs, goals, and personal values. That might mean practicing CBT skills for a season, using mindfulness to manage emotion, or exploring personal stories with narrative techniques.

Online formats give flexibility for people juggling busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions work when video isn't possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing practice between appointments. These options make it easier to fit consistent therapy into everyday routines while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.

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.

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.
