About Shanta

Dr. Shanta Jerideau is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina with seven years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem and confidence, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strains, grief, and trauma and abuse. Her approach begins with listening and building a respectful, compassionate working relationship.

Dr. Jerideau shapes sessions around each person's needs. She uses practical strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and act with purpose when life feels overwhelming.

Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy influence how she looks at relationship patterns and emotional connection. These approaches help people understand recurring conflicts and strengthen how they relate to others.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Clients can expect to talk through current struggles, learn small experiments to try between sessions, and adjust the plan as progress is made. Dr. Jerideau aims for clear steps rather than long, vague lists of tasks.

She invites people to take the first step when they are ready and offers supportive guidance along the way. International clients may be accommodated; confirm session options and scheduling details before booking.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Dr. Jerideau commonly blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values, which can help when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and teaches practical tools to change patterns that cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and current needs with each person and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process helps ensure the plan fits how someone wants to work and what they hope to change.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy life. Online work can reduce travel time and make it simpler to keep consistent appointments. This profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to see what works best for your routine and needs.
