About Shalika

Shalika Eaddy-Henderson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who aims to make therapy straightforward and practical. She asks simple questions to understand what is happening now and offers clear steps to move forward. She speaks plainly and listens first so people feel heard before any plan is made.

Shalika draws on client-centered work to build sessions around each person’s needs. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more useful ones.

Background and approach

Mindfulness and narrative techniques help people manage stress, process painful events, and reframe life stories. She has a decade of experience in social work and has worked in settings that included people facing homelessness and substance use challenges. Her background also includes roles outside clinical care, which shaped her interest in everyday stressors and how they affect mood and focus.

In sessions she often begins by asking how the week or day has been and then follows the client’s lead. That might mean problem-solving a current stressor, practicing brief mindfulness, or looking at patterns that maintain anxiety or low mood. Shalika is based in North Carolina and offers support in English.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process and invites people to move at a pace that feels manageable. If someone prefers, she adapts methods to fit their goals and comfort. Her work covers a range of concerns including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, attention challenges, relationship and family difficulties, anger, and coping with life changes.

She also addresses related issues like body image, communication problems, fertility stress, and grief over separation or infidelity.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens without judgment and follows the client’s lead, helping them set goals and choose what to work on. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. These approaches help with anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which tools to try and adjust them over time so the plan fits real life and real needs.

Online formats offer flexibility for different rhythms and situations. Video calls let people read facial cues and have fuller conversations. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for brief updates, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while using the therapist’s chosen approaches.
