About Shunta
Shunta Long is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, life changes, and relationship strain. She also supports those facing career concerns, parenting stress, depression, and compassion fatigue.
Shunta uses straightforward language and a strengths-based focus when meeting someone new. She begins by listening to each person's story and noticing the strengths already present.
Background and approach
She frames clients as the experts in their lives and helps them apply those strengths to real problems. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps you can try between meetings, not just talk about feelings. Shunta aims to make beginning therapy less intimidating.
She acknowledges the courage it takes to ask for help and gives clear guidance on what to expect in sessions. Her style is warm and direct, with attention to building confidence and motivation. Over five years she has worked with a range of concerns tied to anxiety and everyday stress.
That background helps her adapt strategies to fit each person's needs, whether someone needs short-term coping tools or a longer process of change. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and keeps the work centered on the client's goals. People who choose her often want straightforward support, practical coping skills, and a collaborative approach to change.
She encourages small steps and realistic goals so progress feels manageable.
Approach-driven online therapy that fits your life
Shunta uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and symptom relief. One common approach she uses teaches specific coping skills for anxiety and stress, such as breath work, grounding exercises, and step-by-step plans to handle worry and panic. These tools are meant to reduce immediate distress and help someone feel more in control.She also draws on approaches that build self-esteem and motivation by identifying strengths and testing small behavior changes. This work often involves setting short, doable goals and reviewing what worked in between sessions to build confidence over time. Both approaches are suited to concerns like low self-worth, career stress, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and she works with each person to find what fits best. Together the therapist and client review goals, try approaches, and adjust plans based on what feels most helpful and realistic.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video sessions let people work face to face when attention to nonverbal cues matters. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and messaging provide quick check-ins or a way to keep steady contact between sessions. These options let therapy fit around work, family, and daily life.
