About Abneet
Abneet Sohi is a California LMFT with six years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, LGBT concerns, and coping with life changes. She supports people who are managing mood struggles, identity questions, and the pressure of everyday demands.
She works in a straightforward, collaborative way. Sessions include noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new responses. Techniques draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches when those fit the person's goals.
Abneet often helps people sort through feelings of abandonment, attachment wounds, and caregiver stress. She also addresses gender dysphoria, immigration-related strain, guilt and shame, and obsessive or compulsive behaviors. Practical problem solving is part of most sessions so clients can try different coping steps between meetings.
When people bring issues like jealousy, infidelity, money worries, or questions about life purpose, she breaks the situation into manageable pieces. Sessions aim to find clear next steps and measure small changes over time. Motivation-focused techniques are used when someone needs help clarifying goals and building momentum.
She pays attention to identity and cultural context, especially with LGBT clients. Meetings center on what the person wants to change and how to get there. To start, she asks about recent stressors, daily routines, and what has been tried so far.
How Abneet integrates structured approaches in online sessions
Abneet uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice patterns of thought and behavior and to set small experiments for change. CBT helps with anxiety, depression, obsessive behaviors, and repetitive negative thinking by focusing on concrete skills and practice tasks between sessions.She also draws on client-centered therapy, which emphasizes listening and making space for the client to lead the conversation. This approach supports exploration of identity and values without directing conclusions. Mindfulness therapy is used alongside these methods to build present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity to difficult thoughts and feelings.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the initial work together. She will collaborate with clients to decide which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences. That process includes checking what has helped before and trying short, measurable steps to see what fits.
Details about session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice new skills in their usual environment without the need to travel.
