She draws on a range of therapeutic methods to tailor treatment to what will work best for each individual, and she offers sessions in English and Hindi.

Integrative Approaches for Effective Online Therapy

Sonam blends several therapeutic approaches to meet each person where they are. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, empathetic relationship in which the therapist follows the client’s lead and creates space for personal insight and growth - it is well suited to people seeking understanding and self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, offering practical strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact and can be helpful for people dealing with post-traumatic stress and complex trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Sonam works collaboratively with clients and registered professionals to identify the methods that best fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, or through live chat and text-based messaging to suit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier for people to access consistent support across locations and during life transitions, while maintaining continuity of care with their chosen therapist.
