Sunita Nandhuri, LMFT

Sunita Nandhuri is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a practical, solution-focused approach to therapy. She supports people who feel overwhelmed by life transitions, relationship challenges, or persistent anxiety and low mood. Sunita combines mindfulness practices with cognitive behavioral techniques and hands-on strategies to help clients identify patterns, reduce distress, and build skills that fit into everyday life.

Her work goes beyond conversation to emphasize concrete tools and small, attainable changes that promote clarity, confidence, and improved balance. Sessions center on listening, collaborative goal-setting, and developing personalized plans that address symptoms and the situations that contribute to them. Sunita aims to help clients move forward with greater resilience and clearer direction while honoring each personâs pace and priorities.

She brings 25 years of experience to her practice in California and tailors interventions to meet needs related to stress, anxiety, relationships, grief, depression, and coping with life changes.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Access

Sunita integrates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness into her online practice. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more constructive patterns - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. Mindfulness emphasizes present-moment awareness and practical exercises to reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which can help with stress, rumination, and relationship tension. She also uses practical problem-solving strategies to translate insights into everyday routines and skills that address immediate life challenges.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Sunita works with each person to explore which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time to ensure they are useful and relevant. The therapist-client relationship guides how interventions are combined and applied.

Online therapy offers flexible access to care through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life changes, and receive consistent support from licensed professionals and therapists without the need to travel.
