Getting to know Shena Dicks

Hi there, I'm Shena! Do you need help getting through difficult situations in life? Life can be a little bitter, like chocolate, but with the right coping skills, anything can be achieved or worked through with time and patience. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master's in Social Work from the University of Texas, San Antonio, I am passionate about helping people develop skills to live a full, successful life. I offer remote telehealth sessions throughout the state of Texas. I have over 10 years of clinical experience helping individuals with anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship issues. I have worked extensively with adolescents and behavioral mental health. My approach I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. I approach therapy with a straightforward mindset. I believe in an open, safe environment to share thoughts and feelings without judgment or disapproval. My focus I prefer clients with short-term needs that require assistance focusing on present issues. I am passionate about every person deserving an individualized plan specific to their needs, discovering their underlying concerns, and cultivating outcomes that better their lives. My communication style I believe in reflective listening and helping the client focus thought processes to further insight into present-day situations. I start the process by asking the patient about current life situations and developing a relationship along the way through empathy and reflection. My journey to therapy I first decided to become a therapist in high school when I realized I excelled at getting people to discuss their issues. I became intrigued to discover how I could help people cope with difficult situations. I have experience in the child welfare system, working with waiver programs for disabled children, psychosocial assessments for mental health, and crisis intervention therapy.
