Sara Sukhija , BACP

Sara Sukhija is a counsellor who focuses on helping people through stressful and painful life moments. She offers a calm, listening space where clients can talk about anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship worries and addictions. Sara meets people feeling stuck and helps them begin to make sense of their experience.

Sara uses psychodynamic therapy to look at patterns that repeat in a person's life. This approach pays attention to early relationships, unconscious feelings and recurring behaviours that can affect how someone copes today. Sessions aim to increase understanding and give people more choice in how they respond to stress and emotion.

She has three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation, which is recorded as BACP. Sara has worked with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, parenting strain, body image, eating and sleeping difficulties, and issues related to identity and intimacy. Her practice also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress and the effects of loss.

Sara offers sessions by video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging so people can pick formats that suit their routines. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary by location and therapist availability.

People who want to begin choose Start Therapy, fill a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. Sara's work is based in the United Kingdom and sessions are offered in English.

Psychodynamic approaches and online therapy

Sara uses psychodynamic therapy to help people notice repeating patterns that affect current feelings and relationships. This approach explores early relationships and unconscious feelings so clients can gain clearer self-understanding and new ways of responding to stress and intimacy concerns.

Finding the right way of working is a joint process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences with each person and adapt sessions accordingly. That means trying different ways of talking and reflecting together to decide what helps most for a client's situation.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for short check-ins, and messaging or live chat can fit into busy days or provide ongoing written reflection. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family and daily life.
