As a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, I am passionate about personal growth, both physically and mentally. I find balance through movement, whether it's walking my dogs, hiking, or riding my horses.

Since life has not given us the instruction manual, I am here to support you with an approach as individualized as you are. I have over three years of experience in clinical in-patient and outpatient settings as a social worker working with children, teens, and adults; a year of experience serving as an adjunct instructor at a university; and seventeen years working with the military community.

Hello, my name is Shonda Phillips-Young. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Clinical Supervisor. Thank you for taking the time to get to know me better. I am excited to invite you to embark on a transformative journey toward a more balanced and enriched life, where serenity and personal growth await. My passion is fostering a secure, supportive environment where you can express your thoughts and emotions without fear of judgment.

Before I ever attended college, I found I enjoyed helping people with fitness training and herbs. After homeschooling for several years, I obtained a teachers license and found I preferred working one on one. I enjoy helping people become successful in life. I offer faith based, and integrated health counseling for a holistic touch.

I stem from a solution based theory base but am also very eclectic in my approach. I offer virtual and in- person sessions where clients are encouraged to express themselves freely without fear of rejection or judgement.

I help people who feel anxious, overwhelmed, depressed, or weighed down by the past find steadier ground and feel more at peace in their lives. I know reaching out for therapy can feel hard, and I’m glad you’re here. Whether you’re facing a major life change, carrying old pain, or feeling stretched thin by everyday stress, you don’t have to sort through it alone. Together, we’ll make sense of what you’re feeling and figure out what you need to feel more hopeful, grounded, and in control.

Professionally, I have spent a decade in education (five years as a classroom teacher and five years as a school counselor). This is my third year as a therapist outside of the school setting.

For my masters degree, I attended Texas State University in San Marcos, TX (Eat 'em up cats!). At Texas State, I completed my MA in Professional Counseling with two focuses: school counseling and clinical mental health.

As a former educator, the populations I support include adolescents, young adults, educators, parents/guardians, and caretakers.
