About Sana
Sana Khwaja is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who offers support for people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain and a range of other concerns. She works with issues such as addictions, LGBT-related concerns, trauma and abuse, and parenting stress. Her approach aims to create a calm space where clients can speak honestly and be heard.
Sana uses a person-focused style that centres the client's own experience. Sessions are built around listening and reflecting back what matters to each person.
Background and approach
This helps someone make clearer choices and notice patterns that are getting in the way of change. She also draws on existential ideas that look at meaning, responsibility and the life choices people make. Those conversations can be useful when someone feels stuck, questions their identity, or faces a big life transition.
Sana keeps the language straightforward so people can use what they discuss in day-to-day life. With five years of experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), she brings steady practical support rather than quick fixes. Her sessions focus on what a client wants to work on and how they want to get there.
Sana offers a supportive presence while encouraging small, manageable steps. She helps clients weigh options, try new ways of relating, and build on strengths they already have.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Sana uses client-centred work that focuses on listening closely and following what matters to each person. This approach helps people speak through worries, test ideas and notice patterns in their feelings and behaviour. It suits issues such as anxiety, low mood, relationship concerns and parenting strain.She also uses existential perspectives that look at life choices, identity and meaning. These conversations can help when someone faces major transitions, questions their gender or sexual identity, or feels stuck in an old way of living.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Sana aims to work collaboratively, trying different ways of working until a good fit emerges based on goals and preferences. The client’s priorities shape what is tried and adapted over time.
Practical benefits of online work can include fitting sessions into busy days and removing travel time. Because formats are not specified in the biography, confirm current session options before booking.
