About Saju
Saju favors a person-centered style that makes the relationship between client and counselor central. He also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking that feeds difficult emotions and behavior. Sessions are practical and collaborative, with an emphasis on what the client wants to accomplish.
In the room he pays attention to each person’s background and beliefs. That helps shape solutions that feel realistic and respectful of what matters to the client. He guides people to build their own problem-solving skills rather than offering ready-made answers.
Saju’s experience includes work with adults and adolescents in outpatient programs and hospital counseling services. Over his career he has supported people facing grief, trauma, addiction concerns, bipolar challenges, sleep problems, and caregiver stress among other issues.
He aims to empower clients to make changes that fit their lives. Outside work he and his wife are raising a young daughter and expecting another child later this year.

How these approaches shape online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a strong therapeutic relationship. The therapist offers empathy and reflection to help the person feel heard and to clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice thoughts and beliefs that influence feelings and actions and then try practical changes to test new responses. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance when feelings run high.Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then suggest a path to try. That decision is collaborative and can be adjusted as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They can also make it simpler to keep continuity during life transitions like moves or schedule changes. Licensed professionals and therapists can help clients pick an approach and a session plan that fits daily life.
