About Shanequa
Shanequa Palmer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, anger, low self-esteem, and motivation concerns. She also lists issues related to trauma, grief, intimacy, parenting, ADHD, and LGBT concerns.
Shanequa uses a straightforward, conversational approach in sessions. She listens without judgment and focuses on practical steps people can try between appointments. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the client’s perspective and goals.
She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and what to change to feel better. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change or needs help finding personal reasons to try new behaviors.
Shanequa’s background includes work with a range of life stressors and family-related concerns, including blended family issues and adoption and foster care topics. She can help people talk through communication problems, commitment questions, co-parenting tensions, and the stress of managing multiple roles.
Sessions aim to be practical and steady. Expect clear goals, focused discussions, and homework or strategies to practice between visits. People who want direct feedback and concrete tools often find this style helpful.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client’s concerns back so they can clarify what matters most. Online sessions still allow time for this careful listening and for setting personal goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and then tries specific changes to shift patterns. This approach works well over video or phone because it uses short exercises and measurable tasks that can be reviewed each session.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about making changes. In remote sessions this looks like guided conversations to identify motivations and small next steps that fit day-to-day life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on their goals and preferences. That choice can shift as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets people try different rhythms of care while focusing on practical skills and planning between meetings.
