01About Shanequa
Shanequa Palmer is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem.

She uses straightforward conversations to learn what matters most to each person. Shanequa adapts her approach to the issue at hand rather than following a single script.
Background and approach
Sessions often include practical strategies clients can try between meetings to notice change faster. Shanequa draws on client-centered methods to keep the conversation focused on the client’s goals and experiences. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills.
Motivational interviewing is used when someone needs help finding or strengthening their motivation to change. With four years of clinical work in South Carolina, she has supported people facing trauma, adoption and foster care issues, blended family stress, fertility challenges, and caregiver burden. She also helps with attention-related concerns like ADHD and problems tied to co-morbidity and impulsivity.
Her sessions are intended to be practical and tuned to daily life. Shanequa encourages clients to set small, achievable goals and to track progress between sessions. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk things through and begin making steady changes.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Shanequa uses client-centered work to keep sessions focused on the client's priorities and lived experience, creating space for the client to lead the conversation while the therapist follows and reflects. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is used to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and anger issues. Motivational interviewing helps people find and strengthen their own reasons to make changes, especially when motivation feels low.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Shanequa will talk with each client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before, and then she will collaborate on a plan that fits the person's life. The plan can combine methods and be adjusted as needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a call fits a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while still working on real change.
