Shonte Reeves, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Shonte!

I help clients who are experiencing emotional challenges develop solutions to improve their lives! I focus on working with clients who experience depression, anxiety, or trauma to support them in achieving an agreed level of functioning in their everyday lives.

My focus

I work with adolescents and transitional-aged youth who are experiencing depression, anxiety, and trauma, to support them in adjusting to new challenges, transitions, and difficult decisions.

My approach

My therapeutic approach involves you sharing how you feel we would best work together. I use your thoughts coupled with cognitive behavioral interventions to reach the best outcomes for you!

My communication style

Therapy is collaborative. While I may have a lot of knowledge about how to support you, it is up to you to also be motivated to get the results you want. I take a collaborative approach in my practice by encouraging you to share what you need from me to support you.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always been a helper! I have worked in the helping profession in various capacities to serve high-risk children and families, utilizing general and trauma-focused interventions to help youth and young adults identify, process, and cope with their trauma.

My goals for you

With goal setting, I let the clients take the lead. I will support you with identifying your goals and helping you reach them with the tools we identify together!

Our first session

In our first session, we will discuss your reasons for seeking treatment, your expectations, and ideas for how we can collaborate!
