Getting to know Shandra Wilson
Hi, I'm Dr. Shandra Wilson, a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Texas, Mississippi, and New Mexico. I am an experienced, compassionate counselor who helps people live better lives.
My approach
As a licensed professional counselor with a warm, personable style, I specialize in solution-focused counseling, bringing over 20 years of experience with couples, families, and individuals. I believe in the humanistic approach and treat everyone with respect and compassion. I work with clients of all ages.
My focus
My clients want to improve but may lack the tools or skills to make this happen. They often feel stuck, overwhelmed, and anxious. Together, we decide how to achieve their personal goals.
My communication style
Trusting someone can be hard. I strive to create a comfortable environment that supports you in voicing your concerns openly and honestly. My goal is to help you achieve behavioral and emotional growth while restoring harmony and balance in your life.
My journey to mental healthcare
I believe in seeing the good in all people and have been committed to helping others since my junior year in college when I volunteered at a local middle school supporting youths struggling emotionally. Over 20 years of working with individuals, couples, and families, I've developed a passion for using innovative methods that reshape positive influences in brain chemistry by changing how individuals think about themselves, their challenges, life situations, and surroundings.
Education
I earned my Bachelor's degree from Mississippi State University, followed by a Master's in Counseling Psychology from Mississippi State University and a Master's in Health Sciences from Strayer University.
My goals for you
We work together to create goals based on your strengths. A strength-focused approach helps you realize your potential and achieve the emotional well-being needed to cope with life's challenges.
