She/Her
Shalonda
is a therapist at Two Chairs.
My style is calm, grounded, and direct. I create a space where you can slow down, think clearly, and explore what's underneath the stress. Together, we'll work toward practical tools, stronger boundaries, and changes that feel sustainable, not rushed.

Outside of therapy, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, and reading.
