She offers a calm, down-to-earth space to talk through stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. Her approach blends talking therapies with holistic ideas that look at thoughts, emotions and the body.
Background and approach
Sessions are described as a place to reflect, grow and find new ways to cope. Clients can agree the session length that suits them and shape the focus of the work together with Sujarda. Sujarda names several practical methods she uses, including client-centred work, mindfulness and solution-focused conversations.
She also includes hypnotherapy and motivational interviewing as part of her toolkit. These approaches are used to help with issues such as trauma, bereavement, relationship strain and self-esteem. She explains what happens in a session in plain terms: people talk about their situation, look for different perspectives and practise ways to cope.
Worksheets and messages can be used between meetings to support progress. The tone is supportive and informal, aimed at people who want a straightforward space to work through difficulties. Sujarda lists LGBT among her areas of focus and intends to be welcoming to people from diverse backgrounds.
She works with a wide range of concerns including parenting, grief, sleeping problems, chronic illness and communication difficulties.

Approaches for online counselling and practical support
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s own experience. The counsellor listens without directing and helps the client find their own solutions, which can be helpful for self-esteem and relationship challenges.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and reactivity. It can be useful for anxiety, sleep issues and coping with ongoing pressures.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, doable changes and short-term goals. This approach can work well when someone wants concrete steps to improve work, motivation or day-to-day coping.
Finding the right approach is part of the work itself. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then agree a way of working together. That collaboration helps tailor techniques to what the client needs and can realistically use.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or travel, and it allows for tools such as worksheets and between-session messages to support progress. Some formats may suit shorter check-ins while others may allow fuller conversations, so discuss practical preferences when arranging sessions.
