Healing begins when you feel safe enough to be seen, heard, and understood. I'm Lasheka, and I offer supportive, judgement-free space for individuals and families working through anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and the boundaries that protect your peace. My approach is compassionate, practical, and centered on helping you understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and move forward with greater confidence and purpose. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I'm here to walk along side you.
I’m Shawn, a licensed social worker dedicated to supporting individuals through challenges that impact their well‐being and overall success. I hold a BS in Sociology from the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, an MSW from Louisiana State University, and I am currently completing my PhD in Social Work at Alabama A&M University. My areas of specialization include trauma‐informed intervention, crisis response, behavioral and emotional support, family engagement, and advocacy for youth involved in alternative education or juvenile justice systems.
I've spent years meeting people where they are — literally going out into communities across Louisiana to provide psychiatric care. Now I'm channeling that same commitment into a private telehealth practice, where you can get the support you need from home. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, or PTSD, I offer a flexible, welcoming space for real, lasting progress. Evenings and weekends work for me — I built my schedule around people who can't step away from their day to get the help they deserve.
I am a Psychology Professor, Ordained Minister, Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor in MS and LA, having been a therapist for 30 years. I am also a wife and mother of 3 adult daughters.
I believe everyone needs help from time to time.
I specialize in evening and weekend appointments. Later appointments are available, please request your needs.
I am a friendly goal-oriented therapist who believes strongly in positive self-reinforcement. I have a Master's degree from La Tech University with a background in private practice for over 20 years. I am Licensed in Louisiana and Texas as a professional counselor. I am also Licensed as a marriage and family therapist in Louisiana.
