About me

Hello! My name is Shantelle and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Missouri and Kansas. I have been working in the mental health profession for over 15 years. I enjoy working with people and enjoy seeing others smile while trying to figure out this thing called life. I believe change only comes when we learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable. As the saying goes, change does not come from old comfort zones. I believe therapy allows you to share your deepest, darkest secrets, allows you to be vulnerable and provides a judgement free space. I wholeheartedly believe in meeting people where they are and supporting them along their life journey. Allow me to help you put your pieces back together, one by one. Together we can work to restore peace, restore hope, restore joy and restore YOU!

Shantelle has helped me more in a month than other routes I have been before. Her real life and practical approach has been helping change happen in my day to day. She’s like a life guard able to calmly reach out to you while in the midst and gently guide you back to shore. It’s a process and she walks with you in that process.

Getting therapy from Shantelle has been one of the best things I have done for myself. She is personable, compassionate and genuinely cares about me and my success.

I’ve worked with Shantelle for almost three years now, and I don’t think we’ve ever had a session that wasn’t productive. She helps me set goals and stick to them. She’s very realistic but also very compassionate- two traits that I really appreciate in a therapist. She encourages me to explore & validate my emotions while honoring them in whatever I do moving forward. I feel more whole as a person thanks to therapy. She’s very good at what she does and she cares about what she does. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Shantelle is very helpful to me in trying to achieve my therapy goals. She listens to me, provides direction, and helps me dive deeper into the issues that brought me to Better Help. She is easy to talk with, and very knowledgeable about the issues I face and how to manage them better. I’m confident that with her help, I’ll reach my goals and be in better mental health than I am right now. I also appreciate that she encourages me to reach out via text and to utilize the Journal function of the app, and responds quickly. This platform has been wonderful.

Shantelle is simply amazing. She is so supportive and honest. I need someone to keep me talking and moving forward and she goes beyond that. 1000/10 recommend any day of the week!
