About Shonta
Shonta Harper is a licensed counselor who helps people handle anger, stress, anxiety, and relationship concerns. She practices in Georgia and brings ten years of clinical experience to conversations about career strain, grief, addiction, and identity questions. She focuses on clear, practical steps rather than jargon.
Sessions aim to help clients recognize triggers, learn healthier ways to respond, and rebuild confidence. The tone is direct and compassionate, with attention to how day-to-day life gets affected by emotions.
Background and approach
Her work addresses relationship dynamics, communication problems, and intimacy-related struggles. She also helps people dealing with self-esteem, social anxiety, sleep disruption, and life transitions. That includes support for those facing caregiver stress, aging concerns, and veteran-related issues.
Shonta uses a trauma-aware and culturally responsive stance in her practice. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and offers concrete coping strategies and skills. The goal is to strengthen emotional awareness and practical problem solving over time.
Clients can expect straightforward talk, goal-focused planning, and steady follow-through. Shonta combines listening with active guidance to help people set realistic changes. She draws on her LPC and LCMHC background to shape sessions around each person’s needs.

Approaches that translate to online care
Shonta draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that work well in remote sessions. One common approach focuses on identifying triggers and building coping skills through step-by-step exercises; this helps with anger, stress, and anxiety by teaching specific responses to stressful moments. Another approach emphasizes trauma-informed strategies that attend to past experiences while teaching grounding and emotion-regulation tools useful for grief, abuse, or overwhelm.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day patterns, then adapt methods to fit those needs. Together they try strategies, review progress, and adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical advantages. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or have shorter, timely exchanges. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping a steady continuity of care.
