About Lashanda
Lashanda Robertson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem challenges, parenting strain, grief, anger, bipolar concerns, relationship and family issues, and coping with life changes.
She uses straightforward, skills-based methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps to try between meetings. Lashanda blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy approaches when they fit the work.
Her style is interactive and respectful. She listens, points out patterns that keep problems going, and practices new responses with clients in session. Expect concrete tools you can use outside appointments and brief check-ins about whether techniques are helping.
Over two decades she has worked in a variety of settings and with many concerns, including trauma, parenting problems, anger management, and mood disorders. That background gives her experience with both short-term coping strategies and longer-term skill building.
Clients start by identifying specific, realistic goals. From there Lashanda and the client track progress and adjust methods as needed. She asks about what is already working and what feels hard, then suggests small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on skills you can practice right away. It teaches distress-tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to manage intense feelings and reactions. DBT techniques can help when stress and strong emotions get in the way of daily tasks.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot thinking patterns that worsen mood and behavior. It breaks problems into small, testable steps and uses behavioral experiments to try different responses. CBT is practical and aimed at measurable changes in how someone thinks and acts.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lashanda will collaborate with each person to decide which methods to use based on goals, current difficulties, and personal preferences. She reviews what is working and adjusts the plan as needed so the sessions stay focused on useful skills.
Confirm the specific online session options before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Discuss scheduling and session length when arranging the first appointment so sessions match everyday routines and responsibilities.
