Sana Fatima, BACP

Sana Fatima is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing relationship strain, parenting challenges, low self-esteem and career uncertainty. She speaks English, Hindi and Urdu and works with issues such as anxiety, stress, grief and intimacy-related concerns, including jealousy. Sana aims to make first contact straightforward and compassionate for anyone feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

Her approach is collaborative and practical. She shapes conversations around the person in front of her and their immediate goals. Sessions can include talking through difficult emotions, identifying unhelpful patterns and trying out small changes to improve day-to-day coping.

Sana draws on a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts without getting ruled by them, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to spot and change thinking patterns that fuel anxiety or low mood, and Client-Centred therapy to create a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk. She also draws on Emotionally-Focused and Narrative ideas when those perspectives fit the issue.

With four years of practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, she brings experience across a broad range of concerns. Sana is used to supporting people dealing with trauma, addiction and life transitions, and she tailors the pace to each person’s comfort.

Approaches that guide online therapy conversations

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and it encourages action based on personal values. This is useful for issues like anxiety, shame and repeated relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting the connections between thoughts, feelings and behaviours, and then testing new ways of thinking or acting to reduce anxiety and low mood. It is a practical approach for stress, compulsive patterns and coping with life changes.

Client-Centred Therapy prioritises a respectful, non-judgemental space where the client leads the pace and content of sessions. This can help when someone needs acceptance and clarity to make their own decisions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will talk with the client about goals, preferences and practical needs, and together they will try approaches that feel like a good fit. The plan can be adjusted as understanding grows.

Details about session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people choose a setting that helps them focus, whether that means being on camera or using audio only.
