About Shaunta
Shaunta Gills-Roberson is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks plainly and respects each person she meets, and she aims to make the first step into therapy feel achievable.
She works in a way that centers the person's experience. Conversations are tailored to each situation, not one-size-fits-all. Clients can expect a warm, respectful space where their concerns guide the work together.
Shaunta blends practical techniques with a focus on the person in front of her. That can mean using problem-solving steps from cognitive behavioral therapy to manage anxious thoughts, or solution-focused moves to set small achievable goals. She also brings trauma-focused attention when past harm is part of the struggle.
With 14 years of experience across Oklahoma and Texas contexts, Shaunta has supported people through life transitions, separation and divorce, caregiving stress, and difficult communication patterns. She pays attention to how attachment, abandonment, or codependency issues show up in relationships and day-to-day life.
Her approach is collaborative: she listens first, then helps design goals and methods that fit each person. If you are juggling emotions, isolation, guilt, or impulsivity, she can help you find clearer steps to cope and move forward.
How her approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's experience and values. In practice this looks like listening closely, reflecting what is said, and letting the client's goals guide each session. It helps when someone needs acceptance and space to make sense of feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is practical and skills-based. It helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions to reduce anxiety or low mood. This approach is useful for stress, worry, and managing day-to-day challenges.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods based on needs, goals, and personal preference. Clients can expect the plan to evolve as progress is made.
Confirm the current online session options before booking, as formats are set by the therapist and platform. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, avoid travel time, and check in during a lunch break or between errands. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone when they have less bandwidth, while others choose video when visual interaction helps the conversation. Ask about the available formats when scheduling to find what fits best.
