About Supriya

Supriya Shanti is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 15 years of experience. She practices in Vermont and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, sleep problems, grief, and life changes, and she lists support for LGBT concerns and codependency among her focus areas.

Supriya helps people learn practical coping skills and mindset strategies. She often works on short-term goals over a few months to build tools for managing daily stress and improving sleep. Sessions are straightforward and focused on what a person needs now.

Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. She also uses Attachment-Based and Narrative techniques to look at relationship patterns and personal stories that shape how someone reacts to others.

People who struggle with people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or living around another person’s moods may find sessions that focus on boundaries and self-awareness helpful. Supriya also addresses compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and issues connected to family of origin and abandonment.

She aims to teach skills that fit into everyday life so changes feel manageable. The emphasis is on clear tools, behavioral practice, and short-term strategies when that fits the client’s goals. Supriya works in English and does not take international clients.

How sessions work

How her approaches work for online sessions

Supriya uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take small meaningful actions that align with what matters to them. ACT can be useful when someone feels stuck or overwhelmed and wants strategies to keep moving toward chosen goals.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns in thoughts and behaviors and then practice alternatives. CBT is practical for anxiety, sleep issues, and the day-to-day habits that keep stress high.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Supriya will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels manageable. She and the client decide together whether ACT, CBT, or attachment-focused work fits best and may adjust over time.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can use focused skill practice, guided exercises, and planning between sessions to help changes stick.
