Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Care
Sajeevani integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and a client-centered framework to guide her online practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then clarifies personal values to guide meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and motivation issues. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns in relationships that stem from early connections and helps clients build more secure ways of relating - this approach often supports work on relationship, family, and abandonment or attachment concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and collaboration, creating space for clients to lead the conversation while the therapist reflects and supports growth - it is helpful for building self-esteem, confidence, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sajeevani works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds. Licensed professionals aim to tailor the experience so the client feels heard and empowered.
Online therapy with Sajeevani offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access support from different locations while working with a trusted therapist.
