About Supriya
Supriya Shanti is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience. She blends practical skills and emotional understanding to help people manage stress, anxiety, sleep trouble, and life changes. Her work is grounded in attachment-based ideas that focus on relationships and how early bonds shape current feelings.
She uses short-term, skills-focused work when people want tools they can use quickly. Sessions often include coping strategies for worry, techniques to improve sleep, and ways to steady mood during transitions.
Background and approach
She also supports people from the LGBT community with matters of identity, self-esteem, and resilience. Supriya brings a heart-centered style to therapy. That means she pays attention to emotions and safety while teaching concrete practices like mindfulness and behavioral changes.
Clients can expect conversations that balance understanding with action steps they can try between sessions. Her background includes many therapeutic approaches such as acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness practices. These methods are shaped to fit each person's needs rather than used the same way for everyone.
Over her career she has helped people work through grief, trauma, compassion fatigue, and relationship-related concerns rooted in family of origin or attachment history. Supriya works with adults in Vermont and uses straightforward language in sessions. She focuses on building useful routines, improving communication, and reducing symptoms that get in the way of daily life.
The aim is clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and practical next steps toward better functioning.

Online support
Attachment-informed and skills-based online therapy
Supriya often integrates attachment-based ideas with acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in relationships and how those early connections influence current feelings and behavior. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking actions that match what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and replace it with practical strategies to change behavior and mood.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and life situation. Sessions include clear explanations of techniques, time to practice new skills, and regular check-ins to adjust the plan as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and teaching of mindfulness or behavioral exercises. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging can support brief coaching, reminders, and ongoing skill work between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and maintain consistency over time.
