About Sunya
Sunya Kapidya is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings eight years of clinical experience to her work. She practices in Georgia and offers sessions in English and Hindi. Her approach is direct and person-focused, aimed at helping parents and individuals manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
Sunya draws on several practical therapies to meet real-life needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people take action in line with their values.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Attachment-informed ideas guide work on connection and intimacy concerns. Her background includes inpatient and outpatient treatment, program development, and hospice care.
That range of settings shaped her comfort with complex medical, caregiving, and life-change issues. She has supported people coping with chronic illness, grief, caregiver stress, and adoption or foster-care concerns. In sessions she centers the person’s own goals and perspective.
Conversations focus on clear steps, tools to manage emotions, and building routines that help daily functioning. She also brings experience addressing parenting stress, blended family dynamics, and communication problems. Sunya works with people who face addiction, trauma, bipolar challenges, and compassion fatigue.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy family life. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule with her according to availability.

Approach-focused care delivered online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values, which can be useful for parenting stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors, a good fit for depression, anxiety, and coping strategies. Attachment-Based ideas inform work on connection, communication, and intimacy-related concerns to improve relationships and parenting interactions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will select techniques that match the client’s needs and adjust them as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy family life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone calls can be a simple way to check in when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat support brief check-ins or ongoing skill practice between appointments. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and accessible for parents and caregivers.
