About Shanequa

Shanequa Palmer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, and relationship challenges. She meets clients where they are and aims to make first steps feel manageable. Her style is direct and compassionate, with an emphasis on practical change and clearer communication.

She shapes conversations and plans around each person's needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. That means talking through what matters most to you and trying small, testable steps to change how you cope or respond. Sessions tend to center on real-life problems like anger, motivation, or confidence, and on building skills that people can use between meetings.

Shanequa draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, accepting space where people guide the pace and focus. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help identify unhelpful thinking and build alternative responses. Motivational Interviewing is part of her toolkit for people who want help finding reasons and momentum to make changes.

Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, parenting stress, and ADHD. She also addresses adoption and foster care topics, blended family challenges, body image, and caregiver stress. Shanequa practices in South Carolina and conducts sessions in English.

Starting therapy involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling according to availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches that guide online work

Shanequa often uses Client-Centered Therapy to let the client set the pace and priorities. This approach emphasizes respectful listening and collaboration so people feel heard while they name their goals.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of thinking and behaving. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, anger, and everyday coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and happens together. Shanequa will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasnt helped before. From that conversation she and the client decide which methods to try and when to adjust the plan.

Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking so you know how meetings will be run. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, shorten check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It can also allow sessions from a quieter spot or let someone choose audio-only if that feels better than being on camera.
