About

Hello, I am Sha-kedra Harris, Do you feel overwhelmed, anxious, irritable, or on edge? Do you find that you have trouble sleeping, experience lack of motivation, often fatigued, or burnout? Together, we can work to identify coping strategies to help you feel empowered. I am an experienced Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a demonstrated history of working in the individual and family services industry. I graduated from Valdosta State University with a Master’s in Social Work in 2013. In 2016, I obtained my Clinical licensure through the Georgia Professional Composite Board. I am currently enrolled at Grand Canyon University pursuing a Ph.D. in Performance Psychology, with current classes focused solely on the dissertation process (ABD). I am skilled in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Therapy, Strength-Based Techniques, Evidence-Based Techniques, Group Therapy, Substance Abuse, Marriage and Crisis Counseling Interventions. I hold several credentials to include Board Certified Diplomate (BCD), Clinical Military Counseling (CMCC), Academy of Certified Social Workers (ACSW), and Georgia School Social Work. She is also a member of The National Association of Social Workers (NASW).
