Sonjit Mukherjee, LICSW

Sonjit Mukherjee is a licensed clinical social worker with 28 years of experience offering practical, evidence-informed therapy. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with other approaches to help people manage stress, anxiety, and life's painful events. Sessions are conversational and focused on concrete steps people can use between meetings.

He helps people struggling with depression, grief, and addiction by breaking problems into manageable parts. He also supports those facing relationship and intimacy-related issues, body image and eating concerns, and difficulties with sleep. Concerns such as ADHD, compassion fatigue, career stress, and coping with life changes are also within his focus areas.

Mukherjee draws on acceptance-based methods to help people live by their values even when emotions feel overwhelming. He also uses client-centered techniques to create an open, nonjudgmental space for discussing hard feelings. Dialectical skills are offered when intense emotions or patterns of crisis need steadying.

Practical tools are central to his approach. Clients can expect goal-setting, thought work, and behavioral experiments they can try between sessions. He aims to make therapy relatable and useful rather than full of jargon.

Based in Massachusetts, he works with adults on a wide range of life, mood, and relationship concerns. Sessions are available in English and international clients are accepted. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Sonjit combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to guide online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments, which can help with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. ACT encourages people to notice difficult feelings while choosing actions that align with their values, often used for stress, grief, and chronic life changes.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then tailor techniques from these approaches to fit those needs. Sessions may shift over time as people try tools and report what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy fit busy schedules. Video allows face-to-face conversation and behavioral exercises. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a work break. Chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking skills practice, and ongoing coaching between longer sessions.
