Shauntee Slack, LPC

Shauntee Slack is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana with 10 years of clinical experience supporting adults, children, and families. She emphasizes a trauma-centered approach, understanding that many emotional and behavioral challenges have roots in past experiences and benefit from compassionate, skilled care. Shauntee has worked extensively with children, adolescents, and family systems to navigate life transitions, relationship strain, and the effects of trauma while helping people reconnect with their strengths and priorities.

Her practice integrates evidence-based methods, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). By combining these approaches, she individualizes treatment plans that build practical skills for emotional regulation, coping, and long-term resilience. Shauntee focuses on measurable progress and teaches techniques clients can use between sessions to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning.

Shauntee approaches mental health work as a vocational commitment and a partnership. She aims to create a respectful therapeutic space where clients feel heard and empowered to pursue meaningful growth, and she supports families and individuals at a pace that fits their needs.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Healing

Shauntee often draws on EMDR to address the impact of traumatic memories. EMDR uses guided eye movements or equivalent techniques to help the brain process distressing experiences, often easing the emotional intensity tied to those memories and supporting recovery from post-traumatic stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is another central method she uses. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, panic, and mood disorders.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improved interpersonal effectiveness, which can be particularly helpful for intense emotions, relationship struggles, and chronic stress.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Shauntee works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors a plan that may combine techniques to best support recovery and lasting change.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility for those seeking care. Sessions can take place via video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, accommodate caregiving responsibilities, or access support from home while working with licensed professionals and therapists.
