Shaniqua Parrish-Bacon

Shaniqua Parrish-Bacon is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Maryland with five years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also addresses related concerns such as attachment issues, communication problems, fertility struggles, and questions about life purpose.

Shaniqua focuses on creating an environment where clients can speak honestly about their thoughts and feelings. Sessions tend to be straightforward and conversational. She encourages people to identify small steps that feel manageable, rather than promising quick fixes.

In practice she listens for patterns that keep people stuck, like repetitive conflict, avoidance, or intense worry. Then she works with clients to try different ways of responding to those patterns. That can include practicing communication skills, grounding techniques for panic, and routines to reduce daily stress.

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address trauma and post-traumatic stress, and to support recovery from loss and grief. Shaniqua also helps people navigate midlife questions, workplace strain, and relationship ruptures such as infidelity.

Her approach is collaborative: she and the client decide what to try and how to measure progress. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled.

Evidence-based methods and online sessions

Shaniqua uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common concerns. For trauma and post-traumatic stress she draws on approaches that help people process distressing memories and reduce their power over daily life. For anxiety and panic she uses methods that teach practical skills for grounding, breathing, and shifting worry-driven behavior.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Shaniqua collaborates with each person to identify which techniques fit their goals and preferences. Together they try approaches, check what helps, and adjust the plan as needed so the work remains focused and practical.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during breaks or after work. They also allow options such as shorter check-ins when a brief follow-up is useful. Ask about the session formats offered when you complete the matching questionnaire so scheduling matches your needs.
