About Shanta
Dr. Shanta Jerideau is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina. She brings seven years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.
She works with clients on relationship concerns, intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, grief, trauma and abuse, and LGBT-related challenges. Her approach aims to meet each person's needs with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of several approaches to help people notice and shift difficult emotional patterns.
Background and approach
She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when those methods fit a client’s goals. Attachment-Based Therapy informs how she looks at patterns in close relationships and healing from past hurts. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented.
Dr. Jerideau tailors the dialogue and plan to each person rather than offering a one-size-fits-all program. She helps clients build practical skills for coping with life changes and for improving communication and connection.
People who come to her can expect straightforward guidance and gentle challenge when needed. She encourages small, workable steps that fit into daily life. The aim is better emotional balance and clearer choices about relationships and wellbeing.
Dr. Jerideau accepts clients in English and works with international clients as well. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexible ways to meet.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify the emotions behind interactions and change unhelpful patterns in relationships. Online sessions can use this work to practice new ways of connecting and to name feelings in the moment.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values while learning to tolerate difficult thoughts or feelings. In remote sessions ACT can guide short exercises and homework that fit into daily routines between meetings.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether EFT, ACT, CBT, or attachment-informed work best fits their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and needs change.
Online therapy offers practical benefits like flexible scheduling and multiple ways to connect. Video calls let people use visual cues and practice conversations in real time. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter updates, ongoing reflections, or brief coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or travel routines.
