Anamika Saggar, BACP

Anamika Saggar helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or relationship pain. She uses straightforward talk and practical steps to make emotional problems easier to manage. Her approach is warm and respectful, and she works in English as well as Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu.

She draws on a mix of approaches that focus on feelings, thinking and finding solutions. Sessions usually begin by looking at what matters most to the person. Together they set small, achievable goals and check progress week to week.

Over the past 12 years she has supported people with parenting strains, depression, trauma and abuse, anger and self-esteem issues. She also helps with intimacy-related concerns, communication problems, separation and the fallout from infidelity. Work with fathers on parenting matters is included in her experience.

Anamika is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She combines person-centred listening with cognitive-behavioural tools and emotionally focused ideas to help clients understand patterns and develop new ways of coping.

Her style is practical and compassionate. She aims to tailor sessions to each person's situation and cultural background. People who want to try a different way of managing difficult emotions can expect direct support and collaborative planning.

Therapy approaches and how they work online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional responses. It helps people who feel anxious about closeness, fear abandonment or repeat unhelpful patterns in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and helping the person lead the pace of change; it is useful when someone needs acceptance and a space to make sense of their feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, works on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques for anxiety, stress and low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will try approaches and adjust them based on how the person responds, so the work fits individual needs.

Online therapy can be arranged by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is often used for in-depth work where visual connection matters. Phone sessions can suit quieter audio-only conversations or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, written reflection or flexible scheduling. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
