Yes you need empathy and compassion as a therapist, but to truly HELP people you’ve gotta force them to get up out of the pile of urine they’re sitting in, and most don’t do that. They’re just empathetic listeners. Shaunta brings a great amount of intelligence and discernment to the table. She is truly sharp and on point. Tells it like it is but with great patience and a big heart. Thank you, highly recommend.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Shaunta was a great therapist. She made things simple and easy to comprehend. She heard me out and provided guidance and advice. She was very responsive and I trusted her guidance and expertise. I highly recommend her!
She has helped me so much! Besides being personable she works with me and helps me realize that therapy is a process and there are ups and downs but cheering yourself on is the biggest motivation.
Amazing... I feel like I have made a lot of progress and she cheers me on.
Shaunta has been helping me so much that I wish I had started therapy sooner. I was really afraid at first, but I started feeling a little better after a few sessions. Then after a few months of working with her, I’ve had big changes in myself and my life. She’s the greatest and I’m so thankful for the guidance she’s given me.
Miss Shaunta was great but I need someone that can do video chats on the weekends bc I am home with my 3 year old until I go to work in the evenings during the week.
I absolutely love Shaunta. She is my personal cheerleader, I am forever thankful for her!!!
Shaunta is empathetic and wise in her advice and is able to quickly provide an actionable framework to address burning concerns. In our session together, she listened carefully and was able to help me identify the root cause of my anxiety, while showing me ways to tackle it in a healthy way. I’m very grateful for her support and highly recommend Shaunta’s services.
I was skeptical about therapy going in to it. I expressed what was going on and what I was feeling. I still have a ways to go, but Shaunta has been incredible and really opened my eyes to very simple ways to boost morale and decrease burnout.
