About Ranee

Ranee Sahachartsiri is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience in behavioral health and social work. She works with adults who face stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, and self esteem concerns. Her style is down-to-earth and focused on building on each person’s strengths. She aims to help people move past what has held them back so they can grow and make clearer choices for their lives.

Ranee uses a culturally aware, client-centered approach that puts the person’s goals first. She helps people identify their resilience and everyday coping tools. Sessions often focus on practical steps for managing mood, easing anxiety, and improving communication in relationships.

Her practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and set actionable goals. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is weighing change and needs support to commit to new habits. These methods are blended to match the needs and pace of each person.

Ranee has experience working with family of origin issues, caregiver stress, aging concerns, multicultural challenges, panic and post-traumatic stress, workplace struggles, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation. She emphasizes small, manageable changes that build confidence over time.

She typically responds to messages in the evenings and offers early morning weekend sessions, plus some availability on Fridays and weekday evenings. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on her availability.

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Ranee often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people set their own goals. This approach helps people feel heard and respected while they figure out what they want to change.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is useful for managing anxiety, depression, panic, and unhelpful patterns that affect self esteem and mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss options and adapt methods to fit the person’s goals, pace, and background. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively during early sessions.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins, or offer alternatives when travel is difficult. Many people find it simpler to schedule sessions around work, caregiving, or other daily demands.
