Shantel Butler

Shantel Butler, LPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She works with individuals coping with relationship challenges, family conflict, and transitions such as divorce and separation. Shantel aims to make first steps feel manageable and straightforward for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.

She brings six years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical support for mood disorders, bipolar concerns, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress. Her style is collaborative and person-centered. She partners with clients to identify small, achievable changes and clearer ways to communicate with others.

Shantel emphasizes cultural responsiveness and creates a welcoming space for people of diverse backgrounds. That includes LGBTQ+ individuals and people exploring both faith-centered and secular spiritual views. She pays attention to how identity and life context affect mental health and coping.

Common topics she addresses include attachment issues, communication problems, control issues, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and self-love. She also helps people consider life purpose and make meaning after difficult events. Sessions focus on understanding current struggles and building practical skills for daily life.

Shantel describes her therapeutic relationship as respectful and down-to-earth. She meets clients where they are and works at a pace that fits each person. People seeking steady, compassionate support during transitions often find her approach useful.

Evidence-based approaches and online care that fit your life

Shantel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach helps people learn clearer communication and to set healthier boundaries, which can ease relationship conflict and reduce daily stress. Another approach emphasizes understanding attachment patterns and how early relationship styles show up now, which can help with relationship worries, trust, and loneliness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Shantel collaborates with each person to find what feels most helpful based on goals, life context, and how someone prefers to work. She adjusts methods over time so therapy stays relevant and useful.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, avoid travel time, and check in from quieter surroundings. It also allows for shorter or longer sessions when that helps, and for continuity of care during life transitions. Talk with the therapist during the match process about what session length and rhythms will work best for your schedule and goals.
