Rajiv Soni
Presently, I work in Integrated Behavioral Health providing care alongside doctors, dentists, pharmacists and nutritionists helping patients stay healthy. Over the past 7 years, I’ve worked in shelters, in homelessness drop in centers, in schools, in the community (e.g. individuals’ residences, medical and psychiatric hospitals, and state run facilities), and in traditional outpatient therapy settings. I have a wealth of experience in different settings and with different people. I hope my experience can lend you confidence that I can help.
First session
In first sessions, I tend to ask a variety of questions; about what brings you in, what does success look like, what's important, and how you've been able to grow thus far. It's just as important for you to get to know me. I encourage you to ask whatever will help you feel most comfortable, and best understand.
Strengths
I don't think I'm unique in my approach. I don't think I'm the only therapist that can help. I do know that people who want to grow via therapy, do. I know I've been able to help hundreds of clients and patients get well, stay well, and live their values. I love what I get to do. I think the most interesting thing is learning about people's lives and seeing them overcome. I hope that you give yourself the opportunity to have more, and allow me the opportunity to be of service.
Ideal clients
I don’t have an “ideal” client. I’ve taken great pleasure in working with folks from all backgrounds in all sorts of challenges. I find clients that get the most from therapy are those that are open to discussing their thoughts, experiences, feelings, beliefs, motivations, and goals. It’s also ok not to know these things and we can learn together.
Treatment methods
Solution-Focused Brief Treatment
When I look at problems … the bed is unmade, the laundry undone, the bathroom unclean, several phone calls needing to be returned, even more texts, and hundreds of unread emails needing attention … I find more problems. When I look at solutions … the WiFi is working, I’ve gotten out of bed, I know I need help, I’ve asked for help, and I’ve found a place where I can get help … I find more solutions. Using this approach, I’ve helped clients grow from where they are now, to beyond what they believed to be possible. If you’re here reading this, I might be able to help. I hope you’ll allow me the opportunity to join with you to see what life can bring.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I have experience practicing ACT, and also FACT (focused ACT) helping patients become open to new experiences, thoughts, and feelings, aware of their surroundings, opportunities, and desires, and engage goals that bring purpose.
