Shanequa Palmer , LPC

Shanequa Palmer is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on practical help for everyday struggles. She offers a calm, straightforward style and aims to make the first steps easier for people feeling overwhelmed or unsure. Shanequa works with concerns commonly faced by women, including stress, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship struggles, and grief.

She builds sessions around each person's needs rather than a fixed script. Conversations are relaxed but goal-oriented. Shanequa helps people sort out what matters most, set small reachable goals, and try new ways of coping when old habits aren’t helping.

Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the client's perspective. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ideas are used to notice unhelpful thinking and practice different responses. Motivational Interviewing helps when a person feels stuck or uncertain about change.

Shanequa has four years of clinical experience as an LPC in South Carolina. She draws on that background to help people navigate common life transitions like career shifts, parenting pressures, and blended family challenges. She also supports concerns related to trauma, intimacy, adoption and foster care, fertility, and caregiver stress.

Sessions are available in English and can be scheduled in formats that fit busy lives. Shanequa aims to create a respectful space where people can talk through painful feelings, practice new skills, and move toward clearer choices.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Shanequa uses Client-Centered Therapy to center the conversation on each person's experience and priorities. This approach means the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to identify what feels most important to work on.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood, stress, and patterns that keep repeating.

Motivational Interviewing is used when someone feels stuck or unsure about making changes. It focuses on building motivation step by step and finding personal reasons to try new habits.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Shanequa will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made or new concerns come up.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when meeting in person is difficult. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it possible to communicate between appointments or use shorter, flexible check-ins during the day.
