Getting to know Shondell Hawkins

Hi there, I'm Shondell! My name is Shondell Hawkins, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in North Carolina, with 18+ years of professional experience. I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Michigan. I specialize in behavioral, psychological, emotional, and mental health, trauma-focused, and complex trauma therapy. My approach I am a Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) informed therapist, certified in multiple evidence-based practices (EBPs) including Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Nightmare Rescripting, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also have training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). My focus I help clients manage stress and anxiety, mood disorders such as Major Depressive Disorder and Bipolar Disorder, anger management, and Borderline Personality Disorder. My communication style I strive to create a psychologically safe space for clients, encouraging emotional intelligence and guiding them toward empathy and compassion for themselves while steering away from judgmental, negative self-talk. My journey to mental healthcare Through my own trials, I became a therapist because my mission is to uplift, empower, and encourage others. I believe it's important for each person to know their worth and learn to manage their mental health rather than letting it manage them. My goals for you I believe partnering with clients in goal setting is best because clients are their own best reporters and guide providers on how to support them. My first session with you I believe you are the narrator of your story with strengths and skills to overcome daily obstacles.
