She holds the BACP credential from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and brings international experience from living and working in several countries.

02

How Sadia works

She asks clear questions and will point out patterns that may be holding someone back. Sadia uses practical, goal-focused methods alongside person-centred listening. She helps people connect life events and meanings so they can understand themselves better.

That approach aims to strengthen self-awareness and build clearer next steps. Issues she commonly helps with include coping with life changes, attachment concerns, communication problems and feelings of isolation. She also works with matters such as blended family issues, fertility worries, body image, codependency, and divorce or separation.

Sessions can include short-term problem solving or a longer process of reflection, depending on what a person needs. Her background in multiple therapeutic approaches supports flexible work that matches each person’s goals and pace.

Online support options

Approaches that suit online therapy

Client-centred work focuses on understanding a person’s experience. The counsellor listens deeply and helps the individual find their own solutions, which can be especially useful for worries about identity, low self-esteem and life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It uses straightforward exercises and practical strategies to reduce anxiety and low mood and to improve coping skills.

Motivational Interviewing helps people find motivation to change. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about taking next steps, and it pairs well with goal-focused work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then tailor methods that fit. This is a collaborative process so methods can shift as progress is made.

Online sessions via video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy around life. Video is close to an in-person conversation while phone calls need less bandwidth. Live chat or text can be useful for shorter check-ins, quick reflection, or when writing helps organise thoughts. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt their style across these formats to keep sessions effective and flexible for each person.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
