Ranee Sahachartsiri, LCSW - Therapist in California

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 are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and relationship or family concerns. Ranee uses clear, down-to-earth language and focuses on practical steps people can use in daily life.

Her style is client-centered and strengths-based. She helps people notice their own resilience and build coping tools.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what matters now and on small changes that can ease pressure at home and work. Ranee draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused methods. She blends these approaches to match each person’s goals rather than sticking to a single technique.

That means sessions can include problem-solving, skill practice, and guided reflection depending on what is helpful. She also pays attention to cultural background and how it shapes family patterns, communication, and expectations. This often comes up when people are trying to sort out family-of-origin issues or caregiving stress.

Ranee helps clients notice patterns and try new ways of relating. Ranee practices in California and offers sessions online through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. She aims to make therapy fit into busy lives and to support steady, manageable progress over time.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people discover their own strengths. The therapist follows the person’s lead, offers empathy, and supports practical changes that feel realistic for daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence one another and teaches straightforward skills to reduce anxiety or improve mood.

Finding the right approach happens together. Ranee will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then mix methods as needed. That collaborative process means sessions can include skill practice, goal-setting, and short experiments to try between meetings.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people work face to face from home, while phone sessions, live chat, or text messaging provide options when timing or location is a barrier. These formats make it easier to fit regular support into caregiving, work, or other obligations and to keep progress steady over time.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Motivational Interviewing

A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
