Rani Sagar , BACP

Rani Sagar is a Humanistic psychotherapeutic counsellor who draws on client-centred and attachment-based ideas to help people make sense of their feelings and relationships. She uses a collaborative style to explore thoughts, behaviours and patterns that get in the way of daily life. Rani aims to build a calm, trusting relationship so clients feel heard and respected from the start.

Her practice supports people coping with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety and stress. She also helps those facing life changes, issues with intimacy, addiction-related concerns, self-esteem struggles and career questions. Rani works with concerns such as eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger, bipolar disorder and compassion fatigue.

Rani combines Humanistic principles with techniques from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Jungian ideas and mindfulness. This pluralistic approach means she adapts methods to fit each person’s situation rather than using one fixed model. Sessions focus on practical steps, emotion regulation skills and understanding attachment patterns that affect current relationships.

She holds BACP accreditation, which is listed as her credential, and has four years of clinical experience in the United Kingdom. Sessions are offered in English and open to international clients through online formats.

People can expect straightforward, warm conversations aimed at increasing self-awareness and practical coping tools. The emphasis is on working together to identify small, manageable changes that make daily life easier.

How Rani’s approaches translate to online therapy

Rani draws on attachment-based ideas and client-centred practice to help people explore how early patterns affect current relationships. Attachment-based work looks at how bonds formed in the past shape trust and closeness now, which can help with intimacy, abandonment worries and relationship conflict. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, reflection and building a trusting therapeutic relationship to support self-awareness and personal growth.

She also uses elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to teach practical emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. DBT-style techniques can be useful for intense mood swings, anger, or when someone needs concrete steps to manage difficult feelings. Together these approaches are used collaboratively; the therapist and client decide what fits best and adjust the plan as needs and goals change.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, and messaging or live chat can suit people who prefer writing or want brief check-ins. These options help people access consistent support around work, travel or living in different locations.
