Quiana Sydnor , LPC

Quiana Sydnor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia and Pennsylvania with 18 years of clinical experience as a therapist, life coach, and leader of mental health and intellectual and developmental programs. She is licensed in Georgia (GA LPC LPC006606) and Pennsylvania (PA LPC PC011030), and brings a blend of clinical training and hands-on coaching to support people navigating difficult life moments.

She has worked with clients facing depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, relationship and family challenges, low self-esteem, anger, stress, career transitions, commitment issues, and multicultural concerns. Her approach is compassionate and interactive, emphasizing the client as an active partner in care. Quiana draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to tailor practical strategies that fit each client’s situation.

Quiana emphasizes skill-building and small, achievable steps that help clients manage symptoms, improve relationships, and make meaningful changes in their lives. Her style balances clinical insight with coaching tools, aiming to empower clients to identify goals and move toward them at a sustainable pace.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Quiana commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so clients can explore their goals and values at their own pace. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a practical approach that helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop skills to manage mood, anxiety, and problem behaviors. Motivational Interviewing is another tool she uses to support clients who are weighing change - it helps clarify personal reasons for change and strengthen motivation.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Quiana works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques as progress unfolds and encourages clients to guide what feels most useful.

Online sessions through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to access care with licensed professionals from home or work. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, allow continuity during life transitions, and make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy routine while still receiving regular support from a therapist.
