Approaches used and what online sessions involve
Shalonda Gaddis describes her work as practical and focused on helping people name feelings and try new responses. Evidence-based therapeutic techniques she uses include skills-focused work for anxiety and anger management. These techniques teach breathing, grounding, and step-by-step coping strategies to reduce panic and reactivity. She also addresses grief and addictive behaviors with structured strategies that break problems into manageable steps. That can include identifying triggers, creating short-term coping plans, and practicing alternative behaviors to reduce harm and build momentum toward change. Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made and new issues come up. Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are arranged. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into daily life, such as scheduling appointments around work or using sessions for shorter check-ins when a longer visit is hard to arrange. Talk with the therapist about practical needs like session length, timing, or whether being on camera is required so the plan matches everyday routines.Sheet 3
