About Shona

Shona Dyche is a Licensed Professional Counselor who has worked in Louisiana for 14 years. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and issues with self-esteem. She also supports people dealing with ADHD, anger, addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, and mood concerns such as bipolar.

Shona takes a practical, down-to-earth approach so people can see small changes that matter. Her style is warm and straightforward. Shona listens first to understand each person’s daily struggles.

Background and approach

Then she helps set clear, realistic goals and practices simple skills together. Sessions aim to feel like a steady, focused conversation rather than a lecture. Shona uses client-centered methods to build trust and meet people where they are.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and tries small experiments to shift them. These approaches are used to address anxiety, mood shifts, addictive patterns, and the everyday impact of ADHD. She is attentive to safety and difficult topics, including self-harm, and works at a pace the client is comfortable with.

Shona helps people develop coping tools they can use between sessions. Many people come away with clearer routines, calmer thinking, and a better sense of control over their choices. Shona offers sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Her practice operates through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience without judgment. It involves active listening, reflecting what you say, and helping you find your own solutions. This approach can help when someone needs steady support while they sort out feelings and priorities.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and tries practical experiments to change them. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, managing impulses, and the day-to-day challenges of ADHD by building routines and skills that reduce distress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Shona works with clients to pick methods that fit their goals and comfort level, adjusting plans as progress is made. She will talk through options and try what seems most helpful in real life rather than sticking to one fixed method.

Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls provide face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions, do brief coaching, or keep momentum when time is tight. These options aim to increase flexibility and make ongoing work more practical for everyday life.
