About Shalette
Shalette Lawton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and difficulties with self-esteem. She frames clients as the experts of their own stories and offers steady support while they make change. Shalette works in a straightforward, compassionate way.
She listens first, and then she helps people identify strengths they can use right away. Sessions focus on achievable steps that reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning.
Background and approach
Her approach draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy among other methods. That mix lets Shalette attend to strong emotions, practical thinking patterns, and the client’s own goals when planning sessions. People come to her for many concerns, including grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting stress, career transitions, and chronic illness or pain.
She also supports those dealing with anger, compassion fatigue, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and the fallout of abuse or abandonment. Shalette has twelve years of clinical experience in the field. She aims to make therapy feel manageable and useful, focusing on small changes that add up.
Her style is warm and direct, and she helps clients move from feeling stuck to taking concrete steps toward better coping. If someone prefers practical tools, emotional processing, or a blend of both, Shalette adapts sessions to match each person’s needs and pace.

Online support
Emotion-focused and practical approaches offered online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and shift strong emotions that affect relationships and self-worth. It focuses on identifying core feelings and creating new ways to respond that ease distress and improve connection. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities; the therapist listens closely and follows the client's lead to build trust and self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful habits and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try ideas together, and adjust methods as progress unfolds. This collaborative process helps match techniques to what actually helps the client feel better and function more effectively.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when it matters most, phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins or ongoing reflection. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, quieter check-ins during a break, or shorter contacts when a full session is not needed.
