About Shantele

Shantele Weaver is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing with four years of experience. She is based in North Carolina and notes experience helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, career challenges, and compassion fatigue. Shantele also lists blended family issues among her focus areas.

Her work is practical and person-focused. She uses a mix of approaches and treats each person as the expert on their life. Sessions focus on specific problems like managing anxiety, reducing substance use, coping with loss, or handling work and caregiving stress. She supports people who face aging and geriatric concerns and those coping with chronic illness or disability.

Shantele draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She aims to help people notice what matters to them, try new behavior patterns, and make choices that fit their values. Conversations are intended to clarify goals and build practical steps toward them.

Her background includes work across settings with people navigating housing instability, re-entry after incarceration, and hospice or end-of-life concerns. She also mentions experience addressing impulsivity, communication problems, and issues related to fatherhood and caregiving stress.

Sessions are offered in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options and scheduling details before booking. To begin, people follow the site's matching and scheduling process to arrange a first meeting.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and feelings and then take actions that align with their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding clearer priorities in a blended household. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and helps people try practical changes to reduce worry or unhelpful habits. Motivational Interviewing is a short-term, goal-focused style that helps when someone is unsure about change, for example with substance use or shifting parenting routines.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and help decide which methods to use. That collaborative process means plans can change as issues become clearer or circumstances shift.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It also supports practical skills work such as tracking thoughts between meetings, trying new communication strategies with a partner at home, or using brief motivational conversations to support small behavior changes.
