About Sana

Sana Khwaja helps people who are feeling stuck, anxious, or overwhelmed to find clearer ways forward. She offers a calm space where someone can talk about addiction, trauma, relationship worries, parenting stress, or questions about identity. Her approach aims to make the first steps towards change feel less daunting.

She uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen closely and follow each person's pace. That means sessions focus on what matters most to the individual, with the counsellor reflecting back thoughts and feelings so they become easier to understand.

02

How Sana works

Sana also draws on Existential Therapy, helping people face difficult life questions and rebuild meaning after loss or big change. With five years of experience, Sana has helped people cope with depression, low self-esteem, and adjustments in midlife. She also supports those dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, fertility struggles, and postnatal depression.

Her work includes addressing communication problems, infidelity, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. Sana is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She practises in the United Kingdom and works in English.

Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging to suit different schedules. People who value a listening, non-judgemental approach may find her style helpful. She encourages small, practical steps and helps people test new ways of coping between sessions.

This practical focus aims to make everyday life more manageable while exploring deeper questions of meaning and identity.

Online support options

How these approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being heard and understood. Online sessions with this approach give the person space to talk while the therapist mirrors feelings and highlights what matters most. This can help with anxiety, low mood, and relationship worries.

Existential Therapy encourages people to look at life questions and personal values. In an online setting it supports those facing loss, identity concerns, or major life changes by helping them explore meaning and choices at their own pace.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt the way they work as things change. It is a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many people. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit those who prefer typing or need flexible, brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, or travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
