About Sajeevani

She helps with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, self-esteem, motivation and addictions. Her style is respectful and compassionate, and she works with each person to tailor conversations and goals to their situation.
She draws on a person-centred, strengths-based approach. That means the client’s priorities guide sessions and Sajeevani helps identify small, workable steps. She can offer insight, suggest strategies, and collaborate on realistic goals that fit everyday life.
Her clinical work includes cognitive and mindfulness strategies, attachment-focused ideas, and techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Sajeevani uses these tools to help people manage mood, cope with change, and rebuild confidence after loss or distress.
People come to her for a wide range of concerns such as depression, bipolar mood challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, codependency and body image. She also supports those facing workplace bullying, chronic illness or caregiver stress, and problems with communication and commitment.
Sessions are conversational and practical. Sajeevani aims to make ideas simple and relevant, not overwhelming. She notes that starting therapy takes courage and she works at a steady pace to keep progress realistic.

How her approaches can work for online therapy
Sajeevani draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters, accept difficult feelings and take committed action toward valued goals. ACT can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early and current relationship patterns shape reactions and expectations. This can help people who struggle with abandonment, trust or intimacy concerns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sajeevani collaborates with clients to choose methods that suit their goals, preferences and the issues at hand. She will discuss options and adapt the plan as progress is made.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove the need to travel. For some people this helps maintain momentum between sessions and practise new skills in day-to-day life. Appropriately qualified therapists can tailor session length and focus to suit each person’s circumstances and goals.
