Jusup Sianturi, LMHC

Jusup Sianturi is a New York Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with seven years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing anxiety, depression, relationship stress, trauma and abuse, and concerns like codependency and addictions. Sessions are offered in English and Indonesian.

He uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels off and decide what to try next. Sessions often focus on daily habits, how people react in relationships, and patterns that keep stress or low mood in place. Practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy are mixed with mindful exercises and attention to emotional experience.

Jusup also draws on client-centered and emotionally-focused ways of working. That means the conversation follows the client’s concerns while gently tracking how emotions show up in relationships. He helps people practice new ways of communicating and setting limits without shaming or blaming.

When trauma, grief, or addiction are part of the picture, he helps clients stabilize with concrete steps first. Then the work turns toward understanding the past and testing different coping options in everyday life. He pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues that often underlie repeating patterns.

Outside of direct symptom work, sessions can address career stress, caregiver strain, body image, and parenting challenges. Jusup prefers clear goals and short-term experiments people can try between sessions. International clients may be supported, and he invites prospective clients to confirm current session options before booking.
