About Jusup
Jusup Sianturi is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage strong emotions and everyday stress. He focuses on clear, practical steps so clients can feel steadier and more able to handle conflict, anger, and life changes. He uses straightforward conversation to get to what matters most.
Sessions often begin by identifying patterns that keep problems repeating, like avoidance, control struggles, or low self-worth. From there he and the client try small experiments to test new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Jusup draws on several approaches that fit different needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps challenge unhelpful thoughts and build new habits. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and pace.
Mindfulness practices teach simple ways to lower reactivity in the moment. Over seven years of clinical work he has supported people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and addiction. He also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, communication problems, and issues tied to family of origin.
Anger and coping with overwhelming stress are areas he addresses directly in sessions. He offers therapy in English and Indonesian and works with people from diverse backgrounds, including international clients. Sessions are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging depending on what fits the person’s life.
To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a session. Jusup emphasizes collaboration so clients leave with clear next steps they can try between meetings.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy places the person and their goals at the center of work. In this approach the therapist listens closely, reflects what is important, and follows the client’s pace to help them clarify values and next steps. It is useful for people wanting an empathetic, steady space to sort feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises or worksheets to try between meetings and concrete strategies for handling anger, anxiety, or low mood.
The therapist sees finding the right approach as a collaborative process. He will discuss what methods fit the person’s needs and adjust plans over time. Clients are encouraged to share what helps and what doesn’t so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it possible to send quick updates, do brief check-ins, or continue momentum between sessions. These options help therapy fit around work, caregiving, travel, and different time zones while keeping the focus on making steady progress.
