About Anamika

BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years' experience working with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, parenting concerns, depression, family issues, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related problems. Anamika Saggar offers conversation-focused therapy that centres on practical steps and clearer thinking. She uses client-centred work alongside cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas.

Anamika describes herself as a person-centred counsellor who also specialises in cognitive behavioural therapy. She often uses solution-focused methods that look for workable steps forward when problems feel stuck. Sessions typically begin with listening and mapping what feels most urgent, then trying small strategies to relieve pressure and increase control.

Her practical focus means sessions can include talking through recent events, noticing patterns in thoughts and behaviours, and testing small changes between meetings. Attachment-based ideas and emotionally-focused techniques inform how she looks at relationship difficulties and intimacy concerns. These approaches aim to clarify feelings and improve communication rather than rely on jargon.

Anamika has worked in the Department for Work and Pensions alongside private counselling for over six years. Her background gives experience with everyday pressures such as employment-related stress and family responsibilities. She works in English and speaks Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, which can help when cultural or language matters come up in conversation.

To begin, the usual route is to complete the short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Fees vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking to match timing and format to practical needs.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work pays attention to how early relationships shape current connections; online sessions use questions and reflective conversation to identify those patterns and how they affect present relationships. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and following what the client brings; in remote meetings this often means longer stretches of open talk with the therapist reflecting back what they hear. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings and actions and tests small changes; online meetings can include practical exercises and short between-session tasks to try out new responses. Finding the best approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the client's goals and preferences. She will adjust the plan if something does not feel helpful. Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use audio-only meetings if video is difficult, or schedule sessions around work and family commitments. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt techniques used in face-to-face therapy to these practical formats.
