About Shenelle
Shenelle Hanley is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina with four years of professional experience. She works with adults on common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting stresses, and coping with life changes. Shenelle also notes additional focuses including communication problems, codependency, impulsivity, and women's issues. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not accept international clients.
Shenelle trained in psychology and counseling, earning a Master of Arts in Psychology and completing clinical mental health counseling coursework. Her background includes work with teenagers and adults, which informs how she explains things and plans practical steps. In sessions she listens to what is most pressing and follows the client's pace.
Her approach blends client-centered work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. That means she prioritizes the client's experience, helps identify thoughts and behaviors that get in the way, and supports small, achievable changes. Conversations focus on clear strategies rather than jargon.
People who struggle with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or losing themselves in relationships will find straightforward tools here. Shenelle helps clients notice patterns, practice setting boundaries, and build more reliable habits. She addresses grief, trauma, and mood concerns with calm, step-by-step planning.
Practical matters are part of the work. She uses goal-focused sessions that look at what can change week to week. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's booking flow.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used during online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and reflecting what matters most to the client. It helps people feel heard and decide what changes fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence feelings. It uses practical exercises to test thinking patterns and try new behaviors for problems like anxiety, sleep issues, or low mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It is useful when someone feels stuck or uncertain about taking the next step. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each client to figure out which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That means plans may shift as progress becomes clearer. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Please confirm the specific session formats available before booking, as options are not listed here. The practical benefits often include shorter check-ins when needed, fewer travel demands, and the chance to schedule sessions around work or family obligations.Areas of focus
