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 stress, anxiety, depression, grief and addiction. Sana aims to offer respectful, compassionate support while people take steps toward change.

With four years of professional experience and BACP registration, she adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions focus on practical ways to shift everyday thoughts and habits that get in the way. The work is collaborative and paced to what the person can manage.

Sana draws on a mix of approaches to guide sessions. She uses elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify values and take small, meaningful actions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot and change unhelpful thinking and routine behaviours.

She also uses client-centred methods to keep sessions grounded in listening and understanding. Narrative therapy ideas can help people reframe stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is used where exploring feelings and connection is important.

People can expect a practical, down-to-earth style that focuses on daily habits and thoughts. Sana supports people as they try out new ways of responding to stress, intimacy worries, parenting pressures or life transitions. Her aim is to help people build more workable routines and clearer priorities.

How her approaches work online and in practice

Sana uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values. ACT focuses on actions that matter, which can be useful for life changes, motivation and managing anxiety. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify patterns of thinking and everyday habits that keep problems going, and then tests tiny changes to see what helps.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods suit the person's goals and situation. That collaborative process means techniques can be blended and adjusted over time to match how someone responds.

Confirm current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed, or sessions without video if that helps someone focus. Registered or accredited professionals can help arrange a pattern of meetings that works with daily life rather than disrupting it.
