Our Story
About Family Behavioral Connections
Who We Are
Rooted in Louisiana. Serving Louisiana, Ohio & Minnesota.
Family Behavioral Connections, LLC was founded on a simple but powerful belief: that every person deserves access to compassionate, high-quality mental health care. We are a counseling practice dedicated to serving individuals, couples, families, and young people across Louisiana, Ohio, and Minnesota.
Our name reflects our core mission — to strengthen the connections that matter most. Whether that means helping you reconnect with yourself, rebuild a relationship, or heal old wounds within your family, we are here to walk alongside you every step of the way.
We believe healing happens in relationship. That's why we take the time to truly know each client — your story, your strengths, and your goals — before we ever talk about strategies or solutions.

Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor
Dr. Shauntee Slack, LPC-S, Ph.D.
Ph.D. · LPC-S · Licensed in Louisiana, Ohio & Minnesota
Throughout my career, I have worked extensively with children, adolescents, and families, helping them navigate life transitions, relationship challenges, and the impact of trauma. I believe therapy should be a safe space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to move forward with confidence.
My clinical approach integrates several evidence-based modalities, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). By combining these approaches, I tailor treatment to meet each client's unique needs, helping them build practical skills for emotional regulation, resilience, and lasting change.
For me, mental health work is more than a profession—it is a calling and a purpose. I genuinely enjoy walking alongside people in their healing journey and believe that with the right support, every person has the capacity for growth and transformation.
