About Supriya
Supriya Shanti uses practical, evidence-informed therapy to help people manage stress and anxiety. She is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 15 years of experience. Her style is warm and direct, and she focuses on building skills that make daily life easier.
She helps clients who are navigating grief, identity questions, sleep problems, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Many people come to her for help with self-esteem, coping with change, and compassion fatigue.
How Supriya works
Her practice includes attention to ADHD-related struggles and struggles tied to feeling isolated or overwhelmed. In sessions she blends short-term skill-building with deeper work on life patterns. That can mean learning strategies for anxiety, practicing mindfulness, or examining stories people tell about themselves.
She tries to keep things simple and useful so progress feels clear. Supriya works with people dealing with issues linked to attachment, abandonment, and family of origin concerns. She also supports those facing aging and caregiver stress, hospice and end-of-life needs, and midlife transitions.
Her focus includes communication problems, codependency, and forgiveness work. Therapy is offered through a mix of formats that fit different schedules and needs. Prospective clients choose a Start Therapy button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to availability.
Sessions are conducted in English and are based in Vermont.

Online support options
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and testing unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve sleep. It works well for worry, sleep problems, and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how early connections shape current reactions, which can help with attachment issues, abandonment concerns, and relationship stresses.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then try methods that match those needs. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions can flex to fit real life. Video calls bring face-to-face conversation when people want that connection. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier when video is not needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing coaching, or support between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
