About Ishanie

Ishanie Sanchez is a licensed therapist with 15 years of clinical experience who blends evidence-based therapies with a person-centered sensibility. She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based work to help clients examine patterns, strengthen coping skills, and pursue more values-driven lives.

Background and approach

LPC and LMHC designate her training and licensure in New Jersey and New York respectively, reflecting years of practice with mood, anxiety, trauma, and relationship concerns. Her practice emphasizes collaborative exploration rather than one-size-fits-all solutions, attending to cultural context and the complex realities that surround issues like grief, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Ishanie draws on skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and emotionally focused frameworks to support emotional regulation, communication shifts, and rebuilding trust after relational ruptures. Sessions aim to increase insight, practical coping strategies, and momentum toward goals related to self-esteem, intimacy, or life purpose.

Comfortable working in English and Spanish, she offers a clinical approach that balances empathy with active skills teaching. Prospective clients in New Jersey may find practical, strengths-based work focused on manageable steps toward greater functioning and well-being.

Approaches that guide online therapy and support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help clients clarify personal values and build psychological flexibility, encouraging action toward meaningful goals even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings arise. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaching practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and early interpersonal dynamics to improve current relationship functioning and emotional connection.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively to determine which methods align with the client's goals, preferences, and presenting concerns. That collaborative stance allows adjustments over time so techniques match progress and changing needs.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and living situations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while accessing evidence-informed practices from licensed professionals, and they support a range of conversational and skills-based work tailored to each person's pace and priorities.
