Syn'Toria Branch
Student Counseling Intern
Sam Houston State University
Supervised by Dr. Shawna Munson, LPC-S, LMFT-S
Hi! My name is Syn’Toria Branch, and I am a student counseling intern at Sam Houston State University, supervised by Dr. Shawna Munson, LPC-S, LMFT-S.Â
Â
I graduated with my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology in August 2021 from Stephen F. Austin State University. I have always had a fascination with how people think and form relationships with others that led me to counseling. I have also witnessed firsthand how mental health can affect an individual and their family. I learned very quickly that there is a big need for mental health services, and I want to work to bridge that gap. I believe that anyone can benefit from counseling and that their counselor should create a safe space where they are able to express themselves freely.Â
Â
My theoretical perspective is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, where the counselor would work with the client to develop skills and redevelop negative thoughts. I am excited to work with clients from all ages and backgrounds!
