Shameka Broussard, LCSW

Shameka Broussard is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Texas who uses practical therapy methods to help people manage everyday struggles. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques to guide sessions. Her approach is warm and engaging, and she aims to meet people where they are.

Shameka focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She also helps with parenting stress, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, anger, and career-related worries. Clients coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder, or ADHD may also find useful support.

Additional areas Shameka addresses include autism and Asperger Syndrome, blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, and challenges linked to serious illness such as cancer or hospice care. She also supports people dealing with isolation, guilt, forgiveness, emptiness, and life purpose questions.

In session she uses CBT to look at thinking patterns and behaviors, mindfulness to develop calm and present-moment skills, and solution-focused strategies to set small, practical goals. Conversations are practical and goal-oriented, with simple tools to try between sessions.

Shameka has three years of clinical experience and holds a Texas LCSW credential. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect a person to scheduling options and the therapist's availability.

Practical approaches for online therapy

Shameka draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple attention and breathing practices that reduce reactivity and increase calm. Solution-Focused Therapy is part of her work too, emphasizing small, achievable steps and concrete goals to create momentum.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. They adjust the plan together as progress is made and as priorities change.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is helpful for in-depth conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is low or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins, homework reminders, or flexible support easier to fit into a busy day.
