About Sonjit
Sonjit Mukherjee is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) based in Massachusetts with 28 years of experience. He creates a calm, open space where people can talk about hard feelings without judgment. Sonjit emphasizes practical steps that help people feel steadier in day-to-day life.
He often helps with stress, anxiety, and problems with relationships. He also supports people facing grief, addiction, low self-esteem, and mood concerns such as depression and bipolar disorder. Intimacy-related worries, body image, sleep and eating concerns, and career strain are included among his focus areas.
Sonjit draws on a mix of approaches to fit each person's situation. He uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters most, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and Client-Centered methods to keep the work grounded in the person's own goals. He also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when those styles match the need.
Clients sometimes bring complex life threads like adoption and foster care, caregiving stress, chronic illness, attachment or commitment concerns, and alternative sexual cultures such as kink or BDSM. Sonjit aims to listen carefully and build a plan that addresses the practical effects of these issues.

How Sonjit’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like depression and worry. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and preferences, letting the therapist follow the client's lead while offering gentle guidance.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sonjit will work with the person to decide which methods feel most useful based on goals, preferences, and what shows up in early sessions. He adapts the plan as progress is made, and reviews options together along the way.
Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to connect across time zones for international clients. Practical considerations such as quieter surroundings, camera use, or whether a shorter session would work better are discussed when arranging appointments.
