About Dhruti

Dhruti Shah is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) who brings seven years of clinical practice to her work. She blends practical, evidence-based therapies with a holistic perspective influenced by Eastern practices. Dhruti aims to help people move past feelings of brokenness and rediscover hope and meaning in daily life.

She uses common therapies such as cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior strategies alongside client-centered methods. Mindfulness and yoga-inspired practices may be included when they match a person’s needs. Sessions often include psychoeducation and simple skills people can use between meetings.

Dhruti has supported people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction. She also works with issues like low self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Jealousy and relationship-related struggles are among the concerns she lists.

Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment difficulties, codependency and control issues, dissociation, domestic violence, and care-related stress. She also notes experience with mood concerns such as bipolar symptoms and disruptive mood dysregulation features.

She provides services from Kansas and speaks English, Gujarati, and Hindi. International clients are accepted. To begin, readers complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online work

Dhruti commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small actions that match those values, which can help with anxiety, stress, and stuck feelings. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the person’s own goals guide each session. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals and try different methods to find what fits. You and the therapist decide together whether to emphasize skills practice, emotional processing, or mindfulness-based strategies.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or let someone join from a location with quieter surroundings. Licensed professionals commonly adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so progress continues between meetings.
