About Shaunta

Shaunta Gills-Roberson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Her style is warm and respectful and she aims to meet people where they are.

Shaunta uses a mix of approaches to fit each person's needs rather than one fixed method. She focuses on clear, practical steps people can try between sessions. Conversations are tailored so clients can work through immediate concerns and build skills over time.

With 14 years of professional experience, Shaunta has worked across a range of common challenges. She pays close attention to how attachment, abandonment, and codependency can affect relationships and daily functioning. She also addresses caregiver stress, guilt, shame, and the isolation that can follow big life changes.

Her way of working blends Client-Centered Therapy with cognitive and solution-focused techniques. That means she listens closely, helps reframe unhelpful thoughts, and identifies small, achievable goals. Shaunta supports people who are navigating communication problems, infidelity, divorce or separation, and struggles with commitment or control.

Shaunta encourages a practical pace and clear expectations. She helps clients notice what is working, adjust strategies that aren’t, and build more confidence over time. The first step is often a short conversation to see if the fit feels right.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. The therapist follows the client's lead, offers empathy, and helps people make sense of their feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect; it uses practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thinking and build coping skills that reduce anxiety and improve mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. Goals, preferences, and the issues someone brings guide that choice, and the plan can change as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing sessions during a work day or between errands. Some formats can be well suited to brief check-ins or homework review, while others support longer, deeper conversations. Ask about the session lengths and scheduling to find what fits your routine.
