About Shantele
Shantele Weaver is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults carrying stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and feelings of guilt and shame. Shantele practices in North Carolina and offers sessions in English.
Shantele focuses on practical conversations that help people sort what matters most to them. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. In sessions she encourages people to notice their strengths and to name clear goals they want to try moving toward.
Her background includes work in varied settings supporting people with addiction coping, housing instability, re-entry after incarceration, and issues that come with aging. She also has experience with caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, and hospice or end-of-life concerns. This range informs how she frames problems and options in session.
Shantele describes therapy as collaborative. She listens for what the client already knows about their life and then offers tools and perspectives from different approaches. Sessions can include talking through difficult feelings, experimenting with small behavior changes, and clarifying values that guide next steps.
People who come because of guilt or shame often bring questions about forgiveness, responsibility, or making changes. Shantele helps people examine those concerns alongside practical coping strategies and goal-focused steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and practice small actions that align with those values. It is often used for persistent guilt, anxiety, and motivation problems by focusing on acceptance and committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact and offers practical strategies to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with addictive urges.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Shantele will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She listens to how guilt or shame shows up in daily life and adjusts tools and pacing based on what the person prefers and wants to try.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people appreciate being able to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or medical appointments while still working with a licensed counselor who uses ACT and CBT techniques.
