About Shantaliea

Shantaliea Holloway is a Licensed Professional Counselor who uses straightforward, practical therapy to help people manage stress and anxiety. She draws on 15 years of experience to guide conversations and develop realistic steps you can try between sessions. Shantaliea focuses on building respect, sensitivity, and compassion into each encounter.

She aims to make the first step feel manageable for people who are nervous about reaching out. Her work often addresses trauma and abuse and symptoms related to depression and bipolar challenges.

Background and approach

She also supports people dealing with anger, low self-esteem, motivation struggles, and addiction concerns. Shantaliea pays attention to intimacy-related issues, grief, sleep troubles, and the special stress veterans and armed forces members may face. In sessions she uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on approach that connects thoughts, feelings, and actions.

That method helps identify patterns that keep problems going and offers concrete tools to try instead. She adapts conversations and plans to match each person’s circumstances and goals. Shantaliea practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English.

She emphasizes clear communication and practical next steps, not long lectures. Her style is steady and compassionate while keeping the focus on what will move someone forward. People who reach out can expect direct feedback and homework that supports real-world change.

She meets clients through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. The aim is to create a workable plan that fits daily life.

How CBT and online sessions fit together

Shantaliea primarily brings Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to online work. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and then tests small, practical changes to see what helps. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, anger, and many everyday struggles.

Her approach is collaborative - she will work with each person to find which methods feel useful. The therapist evaluates goals, symptoms, and life demands together with clients and adjusts techniques as needed. Finding the right mix of strategies is part of the process rather than a one-time choice.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to meet without commuting and to use short check-ins between live meetings. Together the accessible formats and CBT tools aim to make consistent progress possible while fitting into day-to-day life.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
