How Shanequa Uses Talk Therapy Online

Shanequa incorporates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts that fuel anxiety or low mood and try different actions to see what changes. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and small experiments to practice between meetings.

She also follows a client-centered approach, which means conversations start with the person’s priorities and move at a pace that feels right. Motivational Interviewing can be used when someone wants change but feels uncertain, helping them clarify reasons to move forward and small first steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Shanequa works with each person to decide whether CBT tools, client-centered support, or motivational techniques will best match their goals and comfort. Plans are adjusted as needs change.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for this work. Video calls let the therapist and client use visual cues and build rapport; phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or a camera is not desired. Live chat or text messaging can make shorter check-ins easier and help people fit therapy into a busy day. These options make regular contact more flexible while keeping focus on clear goals and measurable steps.
