About Shanequa
Shanequa Palmer is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in South Carolina with four years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, anger, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She also addresses depression, grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, intimacy-related concerns, parenting, career changes, and ADHD.
Her approach centers on clear, practical conversations. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Client-Centered Therapy informs how she listens and shapes sessions around what matters to the person. Motivational Interviewing is used when people need support finding reasons to change and building momentum.
Sessions emphasize concrete steps and homework that connect to real life. Shanequa works with specific problems like communication breakdowns, impulsivity, control issues, and family of origin concerns. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care topics, blended family dynamics, body image, caregiver stress, fertility issues, and divorce or separation.
People can expect direct discussion about goals and small experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. She offers a respectful tone and adjusts conversation to match the person’s pace and priorities. Her work aims to create practical options for coping with everyday pressures and longer-term transitions.
Shanequa asks clients to choose a first step by completing a short questionnaire and scheduling an initial session. The intake helps identify the most relevant focus and sets clear, measurable goals for early sessions.
How Shanequa Uses Structured Approaches in Remote Sessions
Shanequa draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then try specific, measurable changes. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person's concerns and priorities, making space for the client to set the pace. Motivational Interviewing is applied when someone needs help clarifying their reasons for change and building small, sustainable steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Shanequa will review goals, past attempts, and daily routines to decide which methods fit best. This is a collaborative process that adjusts as goals shift or new challenges appear.
Practical benefits of working remotely include fitting sessions around a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Remote work can make it easier to keep consistent check-ins, try brief midweek support, or use focused sessions for skill practice without needing to leave work or home.
