About Shatonya
Shatonya Craddock is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 11 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief, and changes in life. Shatonya also addresses issues like compassion fatigue and intimacy-related concerns.
Her approach centers on recognizing each person as the expert on their own story. She draws on practical methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and client-centered work. In sessions she listens, helps people name patterns, and practices skills that reduce distress.
Shatonya uses clear, everyday language in sessions. She focuses on small, doable steps so people can test what helps between meetings. She pays attention to how relationships, identity, culture, and life demands affect mood and behavior.
Over her career she has worked with concerns that often overlap, like attachment and communication problems or the strain caregivers and first responders face. She also supports people dealing with body image, fertility and postpartum challenges, blended family issues, guilt, and infidelity.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that balances talk with practical exercises. She helps clients clarify goals and build skills for handling emotions, improving communication, and managing transitions. The initial steps include a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then pick actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on emotions and attachment needs in close relationships and can help people improve communication and emotional connection.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on how a person responds.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into busy schedules and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to schedule sessions around work breaks. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to know whether video or phone meetings are offered. Online sessions still focus on skills practice, emotion work, and clearer communication so therapy can fit into everyday life.
