About Rajan
Rajan Christian is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 15 years of clinical experience. He works with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, self-esteem and young adult issues. He also helps people dealing with career strain, parenting pressures, ADHD and coping with life changes.
Rajan treats relationship and attachment struggles in plain language. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to change patterns that cause conflict or distress. He draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to test new behaviors.
He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and commit to manageable actions, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. Existential questions about meaning and purpose are addressed with straightforward conversation about choices and responsibility.
Rajan's background includes work in nonprofit programs, county behavioral health, school districts, inpatient settings and private practice. That mix informs how he plans realistic next steps after a session. He has experience responding to crises and supporting people through intense moments.
In early sessions he will listen to what matters most, review immediate concerns, and agree on a few concrete goals. People who meet with him typically leave with small, doable steps to try before the next session.
How Rajan’s approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and taking small committed steps toward those values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck in early adulthood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current reactions and helps people try new ways of relating in day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change patterns that increase stress or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rajan will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and lived experience, and then suggest which methods to try. That choice is reassessed as sessions continue so the approach fits the client’s needs and changes over time.
