About Shantonia

Shantonia Lewis is a counsellor who practises in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She brings four years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and grief. Shantonia aims to make the first step into therapy straightforward and compassionate for anyone who is unsure where to begin.

Her approach is person-centred, which means sessions focus on what matters to the individual.

Background and approach

She listens closely and helps people put words to difficult feelings. Conversations move at the client's pace and priorities guide each session. Shantonia works with issues such as self-esteem, motivation and confidence.

She also supports people dealing with family problems, parenting strain, relationship concerns, anger and life transitions. Practical coping strategies are discussed alongside space to reflect on emotions. Additional areas of focus include attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, body image and caregiver stress.

She also offers support around divorce and separation, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation or jealousy. Seasonal Affective Disorder and questions of life purpose are also within her remit. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to her schedule.

Ways of working Shantonia names

Client-Centred Therapy

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Person-centred therapy online and practical options

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping the person find their own solutions. The counsellor offers a non-judgemental space and follows the client's lead, which can suit issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, grief and relationship concerns. This approach helps people feel heard and gradually make changes that matter to them.

Working out which style fits best is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels comfortable, then adapt the way sessions are run. This is a collaborative process so the person and therapist decide together what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection is helpful. Phone sessions can be shorter or easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins or people who prefer to write rather than speak. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and reach help from different locations.
