About Shena
Shena Locke is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people facing anxiety, stress, depression, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the upheaval that comes with life changes. Shena also supports those coping with trauma, family conflict, career strain, addictions, and postpartum depression.
Shena keeps sessions straightforward and conversational. She creates a calm space where people can talk through feelings without fear of judgment.
Background and approach
Her style aims to build confidence and motivation while setting realistic goals for change. In practical work she helps people identify what’s keeping them stuck and experiments with small steps that feel doable. Conversations may include looking at everyday patterns, clarifying values, and practicing new ways to handle stress and anger.
She also offers coaching-style support for career concerns and rebuilding self-esteem. Shena has worked across a range of challenges for nearly a decade. That experience informs how she tailors sessions to each person’s needs.
She encourages honest talk and focuses on building tools that are useful outside of sessions. Shena works in English and accepts international clients. Therapy can be scheduled in formats that fit busy lives, and she asks people to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire to get started.
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Shena uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new, balanced thoughts to reduce anxiety and low mood; this helps people notice patterns and try different responses. Another approach centers on building coping skills for stress, anger, and trauma by teaching grounding strategies, emotion regulation steps, and short behavioral experiments that can be practiced between sessions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shena works with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and comfort level, and she revises the plan as progress is made. The aim is to find what actually helps in day-to-day life rather than sticking rigidly to a single method.
Online therapy with Shena can be delivered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and exercises that benefit from face-to-face interaction. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, ongoing coaching-style support, or a way to process feelings without an appointment. These options make it easier to work on anxiety, postpartum concerns, and life transitions without major schedule changes.
