About Rani

Rani Sagar is a humanistic psychotherapeutic counsellor who focuses on helping people understand their thoughts, feelings and behaviours. She aims to build a trusting relationship to support people through difficult moments and to help them become more self-aware and self-accepting.

Rani uses a pluralistic approach, which means she draws on a few different ways of working to suit each person. That can include exploring attachment patterns, using client-centred conversation, and drawing on mindfulness to calm intense emotions. She adapts her way of working to what each person brings rather than following a single method.

Many people come to her with relationship worries, jealousy, grief or struggles with anxiety and depression. She also works with issues such as addiction, sleep and eating concerns, self-esteem, anger and career stress. Rani pays attention to how past experiences, including trauma or abandonment, shape present behaviour and relationships.

Sessions typically focus on everyday steps that help people cope better. That might mean learning grounding and distress-tolerance skills, practising new ways of talking about difficult topics, or noticing recurring patterns that cause pain. Rani aims to make sessions practical and clear so people can try new approaches between meetings.

She holds a BACP credential, has four years of clinical experience and operates from the United Kingdom. Conversations are conducted in English and she is open to working with international clients.

How Rani’s approaches can work online

Rani draws on attachment-informed and client-centred ways of working and also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to support emotional regulation. Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships shape current trust and closeness, which can help with jealousy and intimacy concerns. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels heard and able to make their own changes. DBT elements teach practical skills such as grounding, distress tolerance and mindful breathing to manage strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Rani will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That collaboration means approaches can be adjusted over time as needs change.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce time spent travelling and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practise skills between meetings in real-life settings, which can help translate learning into everyday routines.
