Sana KhwajaBACP

Sana Khwaja is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people navigate addiction, trauma, relationship issues and parenting stresses. She writes in a warm, straightforward way and offers a calm space to talk. Sana encourages small, practical steps so clients can feel less overwhelmed by day-to-day life.

Her background includes five years of professional experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That experience has included supporting people with anxiety, depression and issues linked to identity, including gender and LGBT concerns. Postpartum depression, fertility and adoption-related worries are also areas she has worked with.

Sana’s approach is based on client-centred and existential ideas. Sessions focus on listening, understanding what matters most to the client and helping them make choices that fit their values. Conversations aim to be direct but gentle, with practical ways to cope between meetings.

People who meet her can expect a collaborative process. She helps explore patterns in relationships, communication problems and attachment concerns, and looks at how stresses from life changes affect mood and behaviour. Sana also offers support around intimacy, infidelity and non-monogamous relationship questions.

If someone wants to start, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and she accepts clients from outside the UK.

How client-centred and existential work translate to online sessions

Sana uses client-centred therapy, which puts the person’s experience at the heart of each session. That means the counsellor listens carefully, reflects what they hear and helps the client set the pace and topics for change. This approach is useful for concerns such as anxiety, relationship problems and parenting stress.

She also draws on existential therapy, which looks at choices, values and meaning. That approach can help people facing life changes, midlife questions, fertility challenges or the emotional impact of loss and trauma. It encourages clients to consider what matters to them and to make decisions that fit their values.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sana will help clients decide which ideas and techniques suit their goals and preferences, and will adapt the way sessions run to meet practical needs. This is a collaborative process where the client’s priorities guide the plan.

Practical benefits of online therapy include being able to fit sessions into a busy day, shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and avoiding travel time. Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online work that helps people keep therapy consistent alongside family, work or medical appointments.
