Hello! I'm Shaniqua! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Texas, with 9 years of experience in education and 5 years in the healthcare field. This diverse background has given me a well-rounded perspective, allowing me to effectively support individuals through various challenges and stages of life. My goal is to provide a warm, inviting space where you feel comfortable exploring and addressing the obstacles you're facing, whether related to depression, anxiety, life transitions, or other concerns. Together, we will focus on equipping you with the tools and insights needed to overcome these challenges, empowering you to move forward with greater understanding and a renewed sense of control.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, you can expect a welcoming space for us to get to know each other. We'll take time to explore your background and understand the reasons you're seeking therapy. Once we've established a clear picture, we can begin working together to address any challenges you're facing and start moving toward meaningful progress.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

One of my greatest strengths as a therapist is creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable expressing themselves openly. My warm approachable nature allows me to build rapport quickly, which helps lay the foundation for a strong trusting relationship. This connection is key to helping clients fully engage in the process of healing and personal growth. My passion lies in guiding individuals as they discover and develop into the best versions of themselves, supporting their journey toward restoration and enrichment.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

My ideal client is someone ready to take the first step on their healing journey by starting therapy. This person understands that mental well-being is just as important as physical health, recognizing that both are deeply connected. They are committed to living their best life and are determined not to let mental health challenges stand in the way of reaching their full potential or finding peace. If this resonates with you, I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and support you on your journey.
