About Ishanie
Ishanie Sanchez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New Jersey with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, and family and parenting issues. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Ishanie uses a mix of practical, skills-focused methods and relational approaches. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current bonds and intimacy-related concerns.
In sessions she works to identify specific patterns that cause distress, like communication problems, control issues, or avoidance. She teaches coping tools for mood swings, impulsivity, and anxiety. Conversations often include concrete strategies you can practice between meetings.
She has supported people through grief, immigration stress, workplace strain, and career questions. Her work also covers issues like abandonment, commitment worries, infidelity, and financial stress when these affect daily life. Her approach includes elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help manage strong emotions and build more flexible responses.
Ishanie emphasizes collaboration when deciding what to address and which methods to use. If you are weighing parenting strain, family conflict, or changes in a relationship, she helps sort priorities and set achievable steps.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can help when life changes or anxiety make decisions feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, mood issues, and stress. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns shape current connections and communication, which can be useful for intimacy-related concerns and attachment issues.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as needed over time.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday or work break, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. If you prefer exercises, worksheets, or skills practice, those are commonly integrated into the approaches she uses and can be assigned between appointments.
