Client-Centered Care Delivered Online

Sanjay primarily practices client-centered therapy, an approach that places the client's experience at the heart of the work. It emphasizes empathic listening, acceptance, and collaboration so individuals can explore their feelings and make their own choices; this way of working is often helpful for issues such as trauma, grief, depression, relationship concerns and self-esteem challenges.

He combines that person-focused stance with a background in psychology to help clients understand patterns in their thinking and behaviour. Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process - Sanjay works collaboratively with each person to identify what techniques and pace feel most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences.

Online therapy with Sanjay is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to provide flexible access to support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life or mobility needs, and allow registered professionals and therapists to maintain continuity of care even when in-person meetings are not possible.
