About Shalette

Shalette Lawton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and challenges with motivation and confidence.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience, she centers care on each person's strengths and lived knowledge, supporting clients as they pursue meaningful change and improved well-being. Her work emphasizes collaboration and empowerment; she views clients as the experts on their own lives and offers guidance that builds on existing resources.

Shalette brings attention to a wide range of concerns including grief, sleeping difficulties, intimacy-related issues, anger, career strain, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, as well as many related relational and life-stage challenges. She aims to create an environment where taking the first steps toward change feels courageous and supported.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Shalette integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Client-Centered Therapy to address patterns that maintain distress while honoring each person's own perspective. CBT offers clear, practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleeping issues, and ADHD-related struggles. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and respect for the client's expertise about their life, creating space for empowerment and self-directed growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. She works with clients to determine which combination of methods best fits their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, adjusting strategies over time as needs evolve.

Online sessions are available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to access care from home or work, accommodate varying comfort levels with technology, and support continuity of care when life is busy or unpredictable.
