Background and approach

She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and focuses on clear goals. Sessions tend to be straightforward and action-oriented, with time spent identifying problems and trying concrete strategies. Shamekias uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which emphasizes examining thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going.

She helps people test different ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily functioning. With many years practicing in Mississippi, she brings experience across issues like trauma, anger, bipolar mood challenges, compassion fatigue, and life transitions. Her background includes helping people rebuild confidence and regain motivation after difficult periods.

People who meet with her can expect a supportive, encouraging presence and practical tools to try between sessions. She frames change as a series of small, manageable steps and helps clients track progress along the way.

How CBT and online sessions can support change

Shamekias uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients notice the thoughts and actions that keep problems going. CBT focuses on testing new ways of thinking and practicing different behaviors to reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. She works collaboratively with each person to choose techniques that match goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. The process is gradual and guided by what the client finds useful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls let people read facial cues and have longer conversations. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick updates, short coaching moments, or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and try therapy without large scheduling disruptions.
