About Shauna

Shauna Holder is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship concerns, and ADHD among other challenges.

Background and approach

With 13 years of clinical experience, she brings a steady, respectful presence to therapy and emphasizes individualized care tailored to each person's needs and goals. Her work blends evidence-based strategies with empathic listening.

Shauna uses cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, draws on dialectical behavior skills for emotional regulation and distress tolerance, and incorporates client-centered principles to keep the person’s values and priorities central. She also integrates emotion-focused ideas when relationship patterns and attachment issues are key concerns.

Shauna’s background includes addressing trauma and grief, addiction and compulsive behaviors, identity and intimacy issues, and a wide range of life transitions. She frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at practical skill-building, clearer emotional insight, and sustainable coping.

Prospective clients in Texas who prefer a direct yet compassionate therapist may find her approach a good fit.

Approaches That Guide Online Sessions

Shauna integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy alongside client-centered principles to shape online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, ADHD-related struggles, and coping with life changes. Dialectical behavior therapy emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that are useful when intense emotions, relationship conflicts, or self-destructive patterns arise. Client-centered therapy keeps the individual's values and goals at the forefront, creating space for self-directed exploration and growth.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Shauna works with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and she adjusts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and effective for the issues at hand.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it possible to engage in skill practice, brief check-ins, or more in-depth sessions without traveling, which helps maintain continuity of care during life transitions or busy periods.
