About Shaunta
Shaunta Gills-Roberson is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, relationships, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. With 14 years of clinical experience, she brings a calm, respectful presence and adapts her approach to each person's situation.
Background and approach
Her work includes attention to abandonment, attachment struggles, codependency, communication and control issues, and the complex emotions that follow separation or infidelity. She blends practical tools with empathic listening, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused methods to help clients identify unhelpful patterns and build new coping skills.
Trauma-focused techniques are applied when past events interfere with present functioning. Gills-Roberson aims to create tailored dialog and treatment plans that reflect individual needs, offering guidance for motivation, confidence, and navigating difficult life transitions.
Licensed in Oklahoma and Texas as an LPC, she values sensitivity and compassion in the therapeutic relationship and encourages those taking the first step toward support by offering thoughtful, collaborative care.
Approaches That Guide Online Work
Shaunta often integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered techniques in online sessions. CBT involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and practicing specific strategies to change them, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore feelings and build confidence at their own pace.She also uses solution-focused ideas to define clear goals and practical next steps, helping clients notice small changes that lead to progress. Determining the best approach is a collaborative process; the therapist will work with each person to match methods to goals, preferences, and the particular issues presented rather than relying on a single technique.
Online therapy offers flexible options like video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain consistent care despite busy schedules or geographic limits, and they allow licensed professionals to deliver interactive therapeutic work, teach coping skills, and support ongoing problem solving.
