About Abneet

Abneet Sohi is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) in California who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, and life changes. She often supports individuals navigating LGBT issues and the emotional strain of major transitions. Her style is warm and straightforward, aimed at practical progress in everyday life.

Abneet uses simple, evidence-informed methods to help people cope with upsetting thoughts and feelings. Sessions focus on small, doable steps: noticing patterns, testing new behaviors, and building routines that reduce overwhelm. She pays attention to how identity and culture shape each person's experience.

Clients work together with Abneet to sort through painful emotions like guilt, shame, and loneliness. She helps people tackle relationship wounds such as abandonment, attachment problems, jealousy, and infidelity. Practical topics like money stress, caregiver burden, and immigration-related strain are addressed with clear strategies and empathy.

Her approach draws on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. These approaches are used in a collaborative way to match goals and pace. Abneet adapts interventions to each person rather than using a single formula.

She has six years of clinical experience and practices in California as an LMFT. Sessions are offered in English and delivered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Practical approaches for online therapy

Abneet often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. CBT is useful for stress, worry, obsessions, and mood problems because it breaks big issues into manageable steps.

She also uses client-centered therapy, a way of working that focuses on listening closely and following the person's pace. This approach is helpful when someone needs a supportive space to explore identity, self-worth, and life choices without pressure.

Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Abneet works collaboratively to match methods to each person's goals, needs, and comfort level, and she adapts plans as progress is made. The process is gradual and shaped by what feels most useful to the client.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into busy lives. Video is good for full conversations and nonverbal cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can suit quick check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people access care around work, family, and daily routines.
