About Shawntia
Shawntia Hall is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 11 years of experience. She uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people make small changes that add up to a better day-to-day life. Shawntia explains things plainly and focuses on what a person can do now to feel steadier.
She holds a Master’s degree in Social Work and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and she also serves as a Qualified Supervisor for Clinical Social Work Interns.
Background and approach
Shawntia often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts shape feelings and actions and gives clear tools to change unhelpful patterns. She pairs that with supportive therapy to sit with emotional distress and help people rebuild strength. Motivational interviewing is part of her approach to meet people where they are and move at a pace that feels right.
In sessions she aims to teach practical skills for managing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and depressive symptoms. She works through concrete strategies for coping with life changes, anger, and challenges related to attention and mood. Her practice also addresses issues tied to parenting, relationships, addictions, and compassion fatigue.
Shawntia frames counseling as a step-by-step process. She helps clients identify goals and then lays out manageable steps toward those goals. Her style is client-focused and rooted in real-life problem solving.
She practices in Florida and offers online formats for therapy. The focus is on helping people develop tools they can use outside of sessions to handle daily stressors and move toward their priorities.
Practical approaches delivered online
Shawntia commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood concerns. She also uses supportive therapy, which focuses on listening, normalizing strong feelings, and helping people find steady steps forward when emotions feel overwhelming.Motivational interviewing is another tool she brings when someone feels uncertain about change. It uses respectful conversation to clarify a person’s own goals and build motivation, rather than pushing a fixed plan. Together these approaches aim to be practical, adaptable, and driven by the person’s priorities.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Shawntia works collaboratively to figure out which strategies match a person’s needs, goals, and pace. She adjusts tools over time based on what helps most.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to keep momentum between meetings. They offer flexibility for follow-up, skills practice, and check-ins when life is full.
