About Sunya
Sunya Kapidya is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia. She brings eight years of clinical experience across hospitals, inpatient and outpatient programs, and hospice care. Sunya meets people where they are and helps them find practical ways forward when life feels overwhelming.
Her approach blends several evidence-based methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. She uses straightforward conversation, gentle reflection, and hands-on skills to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and relationship struggles.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on small, practical steps that can fit into everyday life. Sunya has worked with people in a wide range of settings and with varied life challenges. That background informs how she tailors care for issues like grief, addiction, parenting strain, chronic illness, and identity-related concerns.
She listens for what matters most and helps people build on their own strengths. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Sessions are available in English and Hindi.
Fees vary by location and follow a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to therapist availability. Sunya aims to work collaboratively so each person finds a path that fits their goals and daily life.
Approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on committing to actions that match personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful thinking and build coping skills for stress, mood problems, and relationship patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and then try methods that fit. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as needed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text messages work well for brief updates, ongoing support between sessions, or when scheduling a longer conversation is hard. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep progress moving forward.
