Shanton Roberson

Shanton Roberson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma, and depression. She practices with attention to career concerns as one of many areas she supports. Shanton speaks English and works from Alabama while holding licenses in both Florida and Alabama as LICSW and LCSW.

She believes clients are the experts in their own stories. In sessions she looks for strengths clients already use and builds on them. Conversations are practical and focused on small steps that can change daily life and work situations.

With 13 years of clinical experience, Shanton draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns, panic, grief, and recovery from abuse. She also helps with parenting strain, body image, multicultural issues, and struggles like impulsivity and guilt.

Shanton aims for a collaborative style. She listens, helps clarify goals, and suggests strategies clients can try between meetings. Progress is measured by what matters most to the person in therapy, such as better relationships, improved coping at work, or reduced anxiety.

People who reach out will complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Shanton uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety and stress through short, actionable strategies that reduce panic and improve daily functioning. Another approach centers on processing trauma and abuse carefully, helping people name what happened, manage strong emotions, and regain control of their day-to-day reactions.

Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they choose methods to try and adjust them as progress is made so the work fits the person's life and values.

If you are interested in online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during lunch hours or between other commitments. It can also allow sessions that do not require video when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are needed, or support a shorter check-in when that suits a client's routine.
