About Shanequa

Shanequa Palmer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, anger, and self-esteem concerns. She works from a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate stance, shaping conversations and treatment plans to each client's specific circumstances and goals.

Background and approach

With four years of clinical experience, Shanequa brings a practical emphasis on motivation and confidence-building while addressing broad concerns such as depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, career transitions, and ADHD.

Her practice also attends to related areas like adoption and foster care dynamics, blended family issues, body image and caregiver stress, communication and control problems, and impulsivity. Shanequa uses established therapeutic methods to support clients facing life changes, relationship strain, fertility or family-of-origin difficulties, and complex emotional responses like guilt and shame.

She aims to make the first steps into therapy easier by meeting clients where they are and collaborating on a tailored path forward.

Practical approaches for online counseling

Shanequa draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work in accessible ways. Client-Centered Therapy centers the client's experience and priorities, offering a nonjudgmental space where empathy and active listening shape goals. This approach can be especially helpful for building trust and clarifying personal values when facing relationship or self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, providing concrete tools to manage anxiety, stress, anger, and impulsivity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shanequa works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress is made. That collaborative stance helps ensure treatment feels relevant and achievable rather than prescriptive.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for clients balancing work, family, or other commitments. These formats make it possible to maintain continuity of care and access therapeutic support from different locations, while still receiving guidance from a licensed professional who tailors interventions to individual circumstances.
