About Sonjit
Sonjit Mukherjee is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with deep experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief, and relationship difficulties. He describes a calm, nonjudgmental approach and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. In sessions he aims to make talking about hard things straightforward.
He invites people to share their thoughts and feelings and to try small, doable changes that can ease distress. He emphasizes coping skills for addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and mood struggles like depression and bipolar symptoms.
Background and approach
Sonjit draws on several therapy methods to match what each person needs. He uses techniques that help people notice difficult thoughts, practice new behaviors, and rebuild emotional connections. He also addresses issues such as self-esteem, intimacy-related concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.
His background spans community and clinical settings across nearly three decades. That experience informs a practical style that balances emotional support with goal-focused work. He also works with people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care questions, and body image or sexual culture concerns.
People can expect a steady, respectful presence and help setting real goals. Sonjit supports parents dealing with parenting strain and helps people navigate career shifts, commitment worries, and major life changes. He accepts clients in English and offers services from Massachusetts while working with some international clients.
Practical therapy approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them, then choose actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) supports rebuilding emotional connection and improving how people express needs and respond to each other in close relationships.Finding the right approach is part of work together. The therapist will review your goals and preferences and suggest methods that fit your situation. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs shift during care.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth work and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth, and chat or messaging can be helpful for brief check-ins or when writing out thoughts feels easier. These options make therapy more flexible for different schedules, time zones, and practical needs.
