About Shavonna
Shavonna Peterson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, trauma and abuse, and self-esteem concerns. She also focuses on issues such as body image, communication problems, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, life purpose, and self-love.
She approaches work from a perspective that centers the client as the expert on their own life. Sessions prioritize listening and clarifying what matters to the person seeking help. Practical steps and reflections are used to identify small changes that can reduce distress and improve decision-making over time.
Her clinical tools include client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral ideas, emotionally focused methods, Jungian themes, and mindfulness practices. Those methods are woven together to suit what a client brings to a session, with attention to thoughts, feelings, and patterns that keep people stuck.
Shavonna often helps people untangle communication problems and relationship patterns that increase stress. She works with clients on rebuilding self-regard after hurt, and on practical approaches to manage anxiety. Conversations can include exploring life purpose when recent changes leave someone unsure what comes next.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Cost varies by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and helping people name their priorities. It is useful when someone needs to sort out values, decisions, or what matters after a life change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and offers hands-on strategies to manage anxiety and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) pays attention to emotional responses and relationship patterns, which can help with communication problems and recurring conflict.Choosing the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust methods based on what helps. Clients play an active role in deciding which techniques to use and how pace and focus should shift over time.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and allow people to meet with a therapist across different locations. These practical benefits can help people maintain continuity of care while they test changes and work through questions about direction and purpose.
