Rajan Christian, LMFT

Rajan Christian is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 15 years of clinical experience. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and problems that show up in relationships and parenting. Rajan uses clear, practical methods so people can make steady changes in daily life.

He blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and attachment-informed strategies. That mix helps people learn skills to change unhelpful thoughts, notice what matters most, and repair patterns in close relationships. Sessions are straightforward and goal-oriented, with space to talk through feelings and real-world practice between meetings.

Rajan has worked in nonprofit settings, county behavioral health, school districts, and private clinics across California. He has experience supporting adolescents and adults in both outpatient and inpatient settings. That background informs his approach to crisis situations and complicated stressors.

People come to him for a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, parenting strain, career stress, ADHD, and problems with intimacy or self-esteem. He also works with mood conditions such as bipolar disorder and disruptive mood challenges. His style is calm and direct, focusing on useful steps people can try right away.

Rajan provides services in English and accepts international clients. He offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so people can choose what fits their life. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps connect someone to the right schedule and format.

How online approaches like CBT and ACT work

Rajan uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises they can try between sessions. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it teaches clear tools to change everyday patterns.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and accept difficult feelings while taking action toward what matters. ACT can be useful for people coping with chronic stress, grief, or ongoing life transitions. Attachment-based ideas are used alongside these approaches to look at how early relationships shape current patterns and to rebuild more secure ways of relating.

Finding the right approach usually happens together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what the client finds helpful. That collaborative process makes it easier to tailor sessions to personal needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deep conversations and working through exercises together. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging make it easier to fit brief coaching or ongoing support into a busy day. These options increase flexibility so therapy can fit around work, school, and family life.
