HELLO!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama (LPC) and I have been working in the counseling field since 2016. I have experience conducting individual, family and group therapy, in-office and online, both residential and outpatient settings. I provide services for a wide range of areas that may negatively impact the quality of our lives including grief, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and substance abuse.

I mostly tend to draw from the reality therapy approach when in a therapeutic relationship. This approach goes beyond just talking about the issue;  it helps people take control of improving their own lives by learning to make better choices. My focus to help find real, meaningful solutions to create the change they are looking for. I believe that, regardless of the issue you are struggling with, we can work together to make your life substantially better. 

Reaching out is often difficult. I'm so excited to be part of your step towards healing. I look forward to working with you.

You can also visit me on www.btctherapy.org and follow on social media.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

LeShunn has been such an amazing support system. We’ve been working together for about 6 to 8 months now. She’s really easy to talk and open up to. I never feel any underlying judgment about anything that I disclose. She always takes the time to reiterate things for me if I forget. She always makes sure to check in with me between sessions and makes it known that she’s available to talk about anything.

I started therapy unsure of how/ what I needed help with. LeShunn offered a comfortable environment to express myself. She also provided many practical resources to evaluate my progress and use in the future. Therapy has afforded me the opportunity to really look within and understand the things that I can control.

LeShunn has been absolutely fantastic. She's exactly what I needed and I'm so happy we found each other. I'm still on my journey and working through things but I appreciate her and that she checks in with me. She is great at making me think and giving me challenges to work on. I feel like I came into this very scared and guarded but she makes me feel safe and that I can tell her everything going on and be honest and upfront no matter how big or small or stupid I might think it is. Thank you! She is amazing!

I have struggled with my mental health for most of my life. I have had the unfortunate opportunity of meeting many therapists over the years. Some made an impact and some did not. From my experience, I believe there are some people in this world who have both the talent and skill to be great therapists. LeShunn is naturally gifted, and also very skilled. I can say she has been the best therapist I have ever had. That is not something I say lightly. Thinking about my emotional and mental state several weeks ago to where I am now gives me whiplash. I have never had such quick improvement before. Her intelligence (both traditional and emotional) are largely to thank for this. Talking with her, I know she would say this change was from my own efforts, and although that is true, she has helped me tremendously. I can't thank her enough
