About Shanelle
Shanelle Slade is an LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York with six years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, addiction, relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, and sexuality-related matters. She also focuses on issues such as sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, parenting pressures, and career or life transitions.
Shanelle uses a practical, solution-focused style. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of responding.
Her background includes work with mood and psychotic disorders, personality and substance-use concerns, and relationship difficulties. She also has experience supporting people affected by HIV/AIDS, hospice and end-of-life counseling, first responder issues, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics.
In practice she prioritizes clear steps and short-term strategies. That can mean tracking patterns, practicing new coping skills between sessions, and using focused conversations to shift behaviors that block everyday functioning. Motivational Interviewing and Client-Centered techniques shape how she engages people who feel stuck.
Sessions aim to be practical and direct. Shanelle helps people set measurable goals and tries methods that can be reviewed each week. English-language care is offered from her New York practice, and she accepts international clients; confirm current session options when you schedule.
How her approaches translate to online care

CBT focuses on concrete exercises and short-term behavior experiments, which can be practiced between sessions to measure progress.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them while clarifying what matters most. Client-Centered techniques shape how conversations are held, with attention to listening and reflecting so people can decide next steps.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. She will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and then try methods that fit those aims. Adjustments are made along the way based on what helps most.
