About Syrita
Syrita Braswell-O'Neal is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship problems, trauma and abuse, anger, and major life changes. She writes in plain terms and aims to make sessions feel grounded and practical for someone juggling parenting and everyday demands.
She focuses on real-world problems like trouble with communication, feelings of isolation, guilt and shame, and struggles with attachment. Syrita also spends time supporting people dealing with women's issues and the emotional parts of personal transformation.
Background and approach
In sessions she works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques and keeps conversations straightforward. She helps clients notice patterns, learn new ways to cope, and practice small changes that add up over time. Sessions are designed to be collaborative and paced to what each person needs.
Syrita has three years of clinical experience and holds a Connecticut Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC. That combination shapes a practical style that balances emotional support with hands-on strategies for change. Her approach aims to make emotional work accessible.
She offers clear steps and tools so people can try things between sessions. The tone is respectful and down-to-earth, with an emphasis on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Approaches that guide online care
Syrita uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage strong emotions and improve relationships. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and trying new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce anxiety and stress; this helps with day-to-day coping and mood. Another approach centers on understanding attachment and relationship patterns, which can improve communication and reduce repeated conflicts in close relationships. These methods are practical and aimed at changes people can practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Syrita collaborates with each person to choose and adapt techniques based on their concerns, goals, and comfort. She checks in often to see what helps and adjusts the plan so the approach fits the client's life and pace.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video lets people use visual cues for deeper conversation, phone can be good when bandwidth is limited, live chat fits quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
