About Shacoya

Shacoya Graham is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in North Carolina. She helps people coping with addictions, relationship struggles, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and mood concerns such as bipolar disorder. Shacoya aims to make the first step feel manageable and respectful so people can begin to heal.

She works in a conversational, person-focused way. Shacoya listens first and adapts sessions to each person's needs. She places emphasis on attachment issues and how early patterns affect current relationships.

Background and approach

Therapy sessions focus on clear goals and small, usable changes rather than large, abstract ideas. Shacoya uses a mix of approaches depending on what a person needs. She draws from Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relational patterns and from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy and client-centered methods guide how she helps people name feelings and build stronger emotional connections. Her style is warm and direct. Shacoya encourages practical steps such as communication skills, boundaries, and relapse prevention planning for addiction concerns.

She works with issues like codependency, infidelity, blended family tensions, and feelings of guilt or shame. With five years of professional experience, she brings steady support and plainspoken guidance. Sessions are offered in English and are scheduled to fit each person’s needs.

Online support

How attachment and practical therapies work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this approach help people identify attachment needs and practice new ways of relating to others. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and changing small behaviors to reduce distress; it is useful for addiction-related habits and mood management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist works collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, needs, and preferences. Sessions may combine approaches and change over time as progress is made, with the person and therapist checking in regularly about fit.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, homework support, or when a quick message fits into a busy day. These options help people fit therapy into work, family life, and recovery routines.
