About Shanta
Dr. Shanta Jerideau is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in South Carolina with seven years of experience. She works with people who bring stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, intimacy-related questions, parenting strain, and coping with life changes.
In session she uses clear, goal-focused methods drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other approaches. Conversations focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then trying practical alternatives. Sessions are steady and structured rather than vague or theoretical.
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas when they fit a person’s needs. That can mean noticing values, practicing small behavioral changes, and looking at how past connection patterns affect present relationships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used in ways that help name and respond to strong feelings.
Dr. Jerideau aims to work collaboratively. She helps people set concrete steps, track progress, and adjust techniques when something is not working. Expect active, problem-focused conversation with clear skills to practice between sessions.
Practical matters are handled up front. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time and cost varies by location. Prospective clients begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session.
How CBT, ACT and Attachment Work Online
Dr. Jerideau commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change small behaviors. CBT sessions focus on practical exercises and homework that test new ways of thinking and acting. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is also used to clarify values and build willingness to accept difficult feelings while taking value-driven action.Attachment-Based ideas are brought in to notice patterns from earlier relationships that affect current connections. That work often focuses on communication habits and emotional responses so people can try different ways of relating. The therapist will discuss which approaches make sense and adjust methods as goals become clearer, working together to find the best fit.

They also let people choose shorter check-ins when needed, avoid travel time, and use video or audio according to what feels most practical. A collaborative process determines which approach and session rhythm will be most useful.
