About Gunjani

Gunjani Patel-Oza is a licensed counselor who blends practical approaches to help people manage anxiety and everyday stress. She uses clear, steady guidance to help clients who face panic, relationship strain, sleep problems, and life transitions. Her demeanor is warm and respectful. She encourages small steps and realistic goals.

With 17 years of experience, Gunjani adapts conversations and plans to each person’s needs. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them. Attachment-Based Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy inform how she addresses relationship patterns and emotional responses.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can speak freely. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is part of her toolkit for processing traumatic memories when that is relevant to a client’s recovery.

In sessions she focuses on practical skills people can use right away, like pacing breathing during panic, setting boundaries in strained relationships, and improving sleep routines. She pairs skill-building with conversations about values and what matters most to the client.

Gunjani is licensed as an LPCC in California and an LMHC in Florida. She offers services in English and accepts international clients. If you’re ready to begin, she asks that you complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It teaches simple exercises to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity, which can ease panic and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and communication. It helps people spot repeated interaction cycles and try new, healthier ways of connecting.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose techniques that feel useful and adjust the plan as progress or needs change.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule sessions around work or family, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use strategies learned in sessions in the same environments where they live and work, which can support practice and lasting change.
