About Sana
Sana Khwaja is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She helps people who are dealing with addictions, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, stress, anxiety, relationships and changes in life. Sana is available for English-speaking clients and accepts enquiries from outside the UK.
Sana uses straightforward conversation to help people clarify what matters to them. She offers a space where clients can talk about difficult feelings and past experiences without judgement. Her work often focuses on immediate worries such as low mood, self-esteem and coping with big life transitions.
Her approach draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which emphasises understanding a person's perspective and building a cooperative relationship. She also uses ideas from Existential Therapy to look at meaning, choice and responsibility during life changes. These approaches guide practical discussions rather than complex techniques.
Sana has worked across a range of topics including adoption and foster care, attachment issues, blended family problems, fertility and postpartum depression. She also supports people facing multicultural and gender identity concerns, communication and intimacy difficulties, and struggle after infidelity.
Sessions typically focus on what each person needs now and what might help next. To get started a short matching questionnaire and initial session are used to set goals and agree a way forward. Fees vary with location and sessions run on a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Sana draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which centres on hearing your experience and responding without judgement. That approach is useful when you want a space to make sense of feelings, relationships and identity in day-to-day life.She also uses elements of Existential Therapy to discuss meaning, choice and responsibility. This can help when someone is feeling lost after university, rethinking career choices, or coping with major life changes common in early adulthood.
Working together to find the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will help compare ways of working and agree what suits your goals and preferences. That means adjusting the focus or pace as you learn what helps.

It can also make it easier to have a shorter check-in or to choose a session that does not need video if that suits your circumstances. Registered or accredited professionals offering online work can help you arrange session times that match study, work or other commitments.
