About Shanique

Shanique Slowley-Azeez is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey who draws on five years of clinical experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, and challenges with self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she works to create a tailored plan that reflects the client’s specific needs and goals. Shanique also addresses relationship concerns such as intimacy-related issues and communication problems, as well as life transitions, grief, and career or parenting stress.

Her style emphasizes collaborative dialogue: she listens carefully, adapts interventions to the individual, and supports clients through difficult changes. Techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), client-centered and mindfulness-based approaches, and motivational interviewing inform her work, allowing her to combine evidence-informed strategies in ways that fit each client.

Shanique invites those ready to pursue greater fulfillment to take a courageous first step and offers ongoing support as they build new skills and perspectives.

Practical approaches for online healing and growth



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is often used to reduce symptoms of anxiety, panic, depression, and to build coping skills for daily stressors. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and unconditional positive regard, creating a space where clients can explore feelings and personal values at their own pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Shanique works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts techniques over time so clients can test what helps most and shape a plan that feels practical and meaningful.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people juggling work, family, or other responsibilities by providing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit consistent care into a busy life and to access support from New Jersey without the need for travel. Licensed professionals can use these options to maintain continuity of care and to tailor session rhythms to what helps each client progress.
