Suandria Houston, LPC

Suandria Houston is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people address stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are. She encourages small steps and practical changes that fit daily life.

She frames clients as the experts in their own stories and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on clear goals and usable skills. Conversations cover coping with life changes, depression, parenting concerns, family problems, and sensitive topics such as infidelity, jealousy, and blended family issues.

Suandria draws on client-centered work to listen and respond to each person’s priorities. She uses cognitive behavioral tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviors. Relationship methods like the Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy inform her way of talking about connection and communication.

Mindfulness approaches are woven into practical exercises for stress relief and grounding. Motivational interviewing helps people find the reasons they want change and take the next step. The methods are chosen to match what a person needs in the moment.

Suandria has a decade of professional experience and practices in Georgia. She has a multicultural orientation and includes racial, ethnic, religious, and socioeconomic factors in her work. Her style is straightforward, respectful, and focused on helping people move toward clearer choices and better day-to-day coping.

Approaches that translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely and following what matters to the person. It supports issues like self-esteem, life transitions, and trauma recovery by focusing on the client's goals and strengths.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks down upsetting thoughts and the actions that follow. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing stress because it teaches specific skills people can practice between sessions.

The Gottman Method and Imago Relationship Therapy offer ways to improve communication, understand patterns, and repair connection. These approaches are helpful when people want clearer boundaries and healthier interactions in their relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest techniques that fit. That collaborative process means methods can shift as progress is made.

Confirm the available session options before booking, since the profile did not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or offering sessions when in-person visits are hard to arrange. Licensed professionals can tailor online sessions to focus on skill practice, communication coaching, and stress management that translate well to remote work.
