Hello _____________,
Please take a moment to peruse my profile descriptions so you can get to know me better.
I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in working with individuals, couples, and families. Over the years, I have assisted clients dealing with various issues such as relationship struggles, trauma, depression, anxiety, PTSD, grief, parenting challenges, career obstacles, and life transitions. Additionally, I have experience working with individuals who have faced domestic abuse, family violence, and mood dysregulation.
In my practice, I employ a strength-based model and interactive therapeutic approach. I aim to create a safe, respectful, and compassionate space for you. My priority is your well-being, and I believe in tailoring your treatment plan to suit your needs. I utilize an integrative approach, drawing from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), talk therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and rational emotive therapy (RET).
The aim is to take a significant step towards self-care and personal growth by seeking support. Remember, seeking assistance at different life stages is entirely normal. Embracing this support can lead to positive changes and a more balanced life. I am here to support you on your journey. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to connect with you.
Please take a moment to review my calendar and schedule a session to discuss your situation. Please reach out if you have further questions.
Warm regards,
Dr. Chetram

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

The best therapist I’ve ever had. She listens, breaks down the psychological aspects & even the neuroscience- she is absolutely great.
Dr. Chetram is very professional in her approach which makes me feel that I'm in safe hands. She listens carefully, take notes, and reflects back to me what I overlook. I would highly recommend her as a therapist.
Incredible therapist! Truly cares about her patients.
