About Shalika
Shalika Eaddy-Henderson uses a client-centered approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in North Carolina with ten years of experience. She aims to make sessions straightforward and focused on what you need right now.
Shalika begins by asking how the week or day has been and then follows the client’s lead about what to address. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness to help people notice difficult thoughts and build practical coping skills.
Background and approach
Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy are also part of her toolbox when clients want to shift habits or reframe painful stories from the past. Her background includes a first master’s degree in Public Administration and a Master of Social Work from Fordham University. Time working in a bank gave her insight into stress related to work and finances.
That experience led her to social work and to supporting people affected by substance use, housing instability, and other life stressors. Shalika has worked in settings that included community and clinical care, bringing together practical problem solving and emotional support. She approaches each session with attention to the client’s priorities and pace.
Sessions are conversational and aimed at small, manageable steps toward feeling better. She works with adults on issues such as ADHD, addictions, relationship and family concerns, fertility and pregnancy-related stress, anger, grief, body image, and communication problems. Language of service is English and her practice is located in North Carolina.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Shalika commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a calm, collaborative space where the client sets the pace and the topics. This approach focuses on listening, understanding your goals, and responding to what matters most to you.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical changes. CBT is useful for conditions like anxiety, depression, panic, and mood problems because it pairs thinking work with concrete behavioral steps. Mindfulness Therapy is used alongside these methods to build attention and reduce reactivity, which can be helpful for stress, trauma symptoms, and compulsive habits.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and how you respond to different techniques. Together you will try methods that fit your needs and adjust the plan over time so the work stays relevant and manageable.
Online therapy offers a range of formats to fit a busy life. Video calls let you maintain a face-to-face conversation when you want a deeper exchange. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is tiring. Live chat or text-based messaging supports quick check-ins, shorter updates, and ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options give flexibility so therapy can fit into work, parenting, or other commitments rather than requiring a long commute.
