About Shantizia
Shantizia Figgs helps people facing parenting challenges, low self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, anger, career changes, and life transitions.

She draws on a mix of cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused strategies. Sessions aim to identify small, doable changes that lead to clearer thinking and better daily routines.
Background and approach
People leave with simple tools to manage mood, handle conflict, and cope with big life shifts. Shantizia adapts her style to each person. Some clients work through parenting and blended family questions.
Others focus on building self-love, communication skills, or planning a career move. The work is practical and goal-oriented rather than long on theory. With three years of clinical experience, she blends real-world problem solving with evidence-informed methods.
She emphasizes measurable steps and checks progress regularly. This helps clients see what is changing and what needs a different approach. Sessions are offered in English and held with attention to each person’s needs and schedule.
People who prefer talking, texting, or brief check-ins can find formats that fit their lives. The goal is steady progress toward clearer thinking and better daily functioning.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each therapist lists and does not check training records.
Online support
Online approaches that focus on practical change
Shantizia uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to change mood and daily routines. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and problems with self-esteem.She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons to change. This approach is short, collaborative, and useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about next steps. Solution-focused therapy is another tool she draws on to set clear goals and practice steps that bring quick improvements.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. They will then try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different routines. Video calls are good for a full session with face-to-face conversation. Phone meetings can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short updates, quick coaching, or when someone prefers writing to talking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while staying focused on progress.
