About Shamanda

Shamanda Burston is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina who specializes in supporting high-performing, high-functioning people who feel overwhelmed behind the scenes. With 15 years of experience, she works with individuals who present success outwardly but privately manage anxiety, burnout, financial pressure, or major life transitions. She recognizes how hard it can be to slow down, set boundaries, or separate self-worth from achievement.

Her style is supportive, direct, and practical. She integrates therapeutic work with financial awareness so clients not only explore emotional patterns but also build more sustainable routines and decision-making around money. Working together, she helps clients manage anxiety, navigate transitions, improve their relationship with money, and clarify what comes next.

She cultivates a space where clients do not have to perform or have everything figured out; honesty and steady progress take priority. Clients are invited to show up as they are, feel supported, and begin moving forward with greater clarity and confidence.

For those ready to stop carrying everything alone and to feel more grounded and in control, Shamanda offers collaborative, goal-oriented support to help create practical, lasting change.

Attachment and Cognitive Approaches for Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on understanding how early relationship patterns influence current ways of connecting with others. It helps people address intimacy-related concerns, family dynamics, and attachment issues by exploring emotional bonds and building healthier relational strategies. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client’s lead; this approach supports self-esteem, coping with life changes, and clarifying personal values through empathetic listening and collaboration. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors by teaching practical skills to manage anxiety, mood changes, and stress, helping clients develop actionable strategies for daily challenges.


Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Shamanda works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds so the work feels relevant and achievable.


Online therapy offers flexible access to licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or navigate life transitions. These options allow clients to engage in consistent care from locations that suit them while maintaining the collaborative, focused work that therapy provides.
