About Shantelle
Shantelle Wells is a licensed counselor who helps people manage stress, anger, anxiety, grief, and relationship struggles. She practices from Missouri and brings 18 years of experience to sessions. Shantelle keeps conversations straightforward and practical so people can use what they learn right away.
She uses an approachable, down-to-earth style. Sessions focus on meeting each person where they are and building skills that fit real life. Expect clear explanations, active listening, and step-by-step coping tools rather than jargon or long lectures.
Background and approach
Shantelle often draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Solution-focused work helps set small, achievable goals so progress feels tangible.
Her work covers a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, panic and post-traumatic stress, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and problems with communication and boundaries. She also supports people dealing with life transitions, career stress, shame, and isolation. Clients who choose her can expect a collaborative process.
She asks practical questions, helps name problems clearly, and builds doable plans. The aim is steady improvement through small changes that add up over time.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connections influence current feelings and behavior. It can help people understand patterns in relationships and build more supported ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to ease symptoms like anxiety and panic.Finding the best approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will adjust methods as work progresses so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single model.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls let people meet face-to-face when convenient. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a camera-free check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging support brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, or a different way to express thoughts when typing feels easier.
