Getting to know Shontia Morris

Hi there, I'm Shontia! I am Dr. Shontia Morris, a Licensed Professional Counselor authorized in Mississippi with over 18 years of experience as a therapist. I hold a Master's degree from Reformed Theological Seminary and a Bachelor's degree from Tougaloo College. My approach to therapy involves connecting with my clients, providing a safe and confidential space, actively listening to concerns, and collaborating with them to develop goals and strategies to address issues while maintaining ethical boundaries. My focus areas of practice include anxiety disorders, depression, relationship issues, stress management, parenting issues, and trauma-focused therapy. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, mindful, and solution-focused therapies. I have worked with clients facing a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, divorce/separation, and career challenges. I've also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style is warm, positive, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. The opportunity to impact my community by educating, motivating, and supporting individuals one person at a time attracted me to become a therapist. My desire to help others identify concerns and specific strategies to improve their quality of life drives me to do this work. I work to develop personalized treatment goals that help identify and challenge negative behaviors and perceptions to improve your quality of life. During your first session, you can expect a peaceful, nonjudgmental space to discuss expectations, concerns, strategies that are not working, and growth opportunities.
