Elevated Solutions Counseling

My name is Shonda Phillips-Young I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Texas. I have been married to my husband for 22 years and have 3 children and a dog. My husband and I are both Army veterans. I obtained my bachelor's degree in Social Work from Texas A&M University-Central Texas in 2016. I then went to Texas State University and obtained a master’s degree in Social Work in 2017. I have worked in mental health since 2019; before that, I worked in long-term care. I have worked with adults (18-80), adolescents (13-17), children (8-12), veterans, couples, and incarcerated individuals. I have experience with post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and others. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral (CBT), schema, and solution-focused therapy to tailor your treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. During your initial session, we will collaborate to determine your needs and begin the rapport-building process. My counseling style is direct, warm, and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. It takes strength and self-determination to seek help and assistance with finding greater happiness in your life. I applaud your determination and thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey.
