About Shaterrika
She believes clients are the experts on their own story. She uses that perspective to help people notice what is already working and build on it. Conversations are practical and goal-focused, aimed at small steps that feel doable.
Her work covers related challenges such as chronic pain and illness, codependency, fertility concerns, and multicultural stressors. Pregnancy and childbirth are part of the topics she has supported people around. She also has experience addressing issues tied to military service and self-harm in ways that prioritize immediate coping and safety.
Shaterrika draws from client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. Sessions typically blend listening with skills practice, thinking about patterns, and trying new strategies between meetings. The tone is collaborative and strengths-based.
People who are looking for practical tools and steady support may feel comfortable working with her. She invites clients to take small, courageous steps toward change while she offers guidance and feedback during the process.
How her approaches work in online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's point of view. It helps people feel seen and supports their own decisions about change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors connect and teaches practical strategies to manage mood, worry, and habits.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on goals, needs, and comfort level. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing commuting time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from different locations within their region. It also lets sessions focus on skills practice, homework review, and problem-solving in ways that match day-to-day life.
