About Sana
Sana Fatima helps people who are feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed by life changes. She works with clients who are struggling with relationships, parenting, career shifts, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, addiction or grief. Sana presents a calm, respectful approach that aims to make talking about difficult things easier and more straightforward.
She uses conversations tailored to each person rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps people can try between meetings.
How Sana works
Sana encourages practical experiments alongside reflection so clients test what helps in day-to-day life. Sana trained and practises methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. She also draws from Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Narrative Therapy to support people dealing with intimacy issues, trauma, family conflicts, or identity questions.
These approaches guide how she listens and how she frames goals with each person. Sana holds BACP registration, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She has four years of professional experience working with a wide range of concerns, including more specialised topics such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger Syndrome, BDSM and kink, immigration issues, and end-of-life matters. Sessions are offered in English, Hindi and Urdu and are available to people in the United Kingdom and internationally.
Sana blends practical tools and compassionate listening to help people make clearer decisions, manage strong emotions, and move toward the life they want.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Sana commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Client-Centred Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and it supports taking actions that reflect personal values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood and change unhelpful patterns. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people find their own solutions through a supportive therapeutic relationship.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sana will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. She then suggests ways of working and adapts methods so they suit the person's needs and pace, making decisions with the client rather than for them.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into life. Video is useful for a deeper conversational feel, phone sessions work when video isn't possible, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing between meetings. These options help with flexible scheduling, reduce travel time and allow clients to pick the format that best matches their day-to-day needs.
