About Raj
Raj Chehl is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 23 years of clinical experience. She works from Michigan and brings a practical, person-focused style to sessions. Raj aims to help people find clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and better relationships through talk and guided practice.
She uses client-centered ways of working so people feel heard and understood before making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to notice patterns in thinking and behavior and to try different responses.

Her background includes a Master of Arts degree from Oakland University and a range of cross-disciplinary practices that feed into her work. Raj also draws on mindfulness and somatic awareness to help people calm the body and focus attention.
She has practiced for many years and brings that steady experience to each session. People come to Raj with anxiety, stress, grief, relationship problems, mood issues, addictions, parenting struggles, and identity concerns, including LGBT matters. She also supports those dealing with attachment wounds, codependency, caregiver stress, dissociation, and recovery from domestic violence.
In sessions Raj talks through current problems, teaches practical skills, and helps people test small changes between meetings. Her approach balances emotional exploration with down-to-earth strategies so clients can try new ways of living and relating.

Online support
How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels understood and accepted; it helps people clarify their needs and make choices that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and provides concrete exercises to test new behaviors and reduce distress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) addresses distressing memories by pairing focused attention with guided processing to lessen the emotional charge of those memories.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past, then try approaches that match those needs. Methods can be adjusted over time based on progress and client feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy here includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone may be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins, and text messaging helps people follow up or reflect between meetings. These options give flexibility for scheduling, steady continuity of care, and ways to keep work going when life gets busy.
