About Sursatie

Dr. Sursatie Chetram is a licensed psychotherapist who brings a strength-based, interactive approach to work with individuals, couples, and families. She creates a respectful and compassionate environment focused on clients' well-being and collaborates with each person to tailor treatment plans that meet their unique needs. Dr. Chetram holds the LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor - and draws on an integrative toolkit to address concerns such as relationship difficulties, trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, parenting challenges, career obstacles, life transitions, domestic abuse, family violence, and mood dysregulation.

Her practice emphasizes practical, skill-based work alongside deeper exploration, combining evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), talk therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and rational emotive therapy (RET). This blended approach supports clients in building coping skills, processing past experiences, and taking meaningful steps toward personal growth and self-care.

Seeking support at different life stages is a normal and often important step toward greater balance. Dr. Chetram invites prospective clients to review her calendar and schedule a session to discuss their situation and next steps. She welcomes questions and looks forward to connecting and supporting people on their healing journeys.

Therapeutic Approaches and Remote Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values, accept difficult feelings, and take committed action toward a fuller life. It is often useful for stress, anxiety, and coping with major life changes by emphasizing what matters most to the individual and building small, value-driven habits.

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns that arise from early relationships and how those patterns influence current connections. This approach is helpful for relationship struggles, abandonment or attachment issues, and for people seeking to improve trust and emotional safety with partners or family members.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a practical, skills-oriented approach that examines the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It supports people with depression, anxiety, and many everyday challenges by teaching tools to reframe unhelpful thinking and develop coping strategies.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Dr. Chetram works collaboratively with clients to identify the best fit based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they may blend elements from several approaches to create a personalized plan.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care across locations, and access support from wherever the client is located.
