About Shequitta
Shequitta Lenoir is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who centers her work on practical, evidence-informed methods to help people navigate emotional and relational challenges.
Background and approach
Shequitta draws on seven years of clinical experience in licensed practice, applying approaches such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to address concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, and ADHD.
Her background includes education in psychology and marriage and family therapy, and she aims to strengthen clients' self-esteem, confidence, and awareness so they can move toward meaningful change. Shequitta's earlier professional roles included work with individuals experiencing severe and persistent mental illness and with those managing substance use issues, which shaped her pragmatic, skills-oriented style.
Licensed in Minnesota and Texas as an LMFT, she offers therapeutic support tailored to each person’s situation, emphasizing coping strategies for stress, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting, and compassion fatigue. Her practice focuses on helping people identify goals and build the tools needed to manage life transitions and emotional challenges effectively.
Evidence-Informed Techniques Delivered Online
Shequitta commonly uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy, which focuses on building practical skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness. This approach can be helpful for people struggling with strong mood swings, relationship strain, or difficulty managing stress.She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches behavioral strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. Motivational Interviewing is used to support readiness for change by exploring values and enhancing personal motivation for goals like recovery from substance use or improving daily routines.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process; the therapist discusses needs, goals, and preferences with each client and adapts techniques to fit their circumstances. Shequitta aims to match evidence-based tools to what a client finds most useful, modifying the plan as therapy progresses.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for scheduling and for engaging in care from different locations. These formats make it possible to continue consistent work on goals and skills while accommodating varied routines and accessibility needs.
