Anamika Saggar
Practical counselling for stress and relationships
About Anamika
Anamika Saggar works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, depression, or relationship strain. She is approachable and speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu. She aims to make talking about hard things feel straightforward and manageable.
Anamika uses a person-centred approach that puts the person's experience at the centre of sessions. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused ideas to help people spot patterns and try practical steps.
Background and approach
Conversations are shaped to each person's needs rather than following a rigid plan. She has 12 years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Alongside personal counselling she has worked for a government department, bringing practical experience of supporting people through change.
That background informs a down-to-earth, respectful style. Sessions typically focus on understanding what matters most to the person and trying small, achievable changes. Anamika pays attention to attachment and intimacy issues, and she supports people dealing with trauma, abuse, parenting strains, anger, low self-esteem and family problems.
She also helps with issues such as abandonment, codependency, body image and infidelity. Her manner is calm and attentive. She aims to offer a listening space that feels safe and steady while helping people find workable steps forward.
She encourages honest conversation and supports clients as they try new ways of coping.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early connection patterns shape current feelings and relationships. Online sessions using this approach help people notice recurring patterns and try different ways of relating in everyday life. Client-centred counselling focuses on careful listening and reflecting what you say so you can make sense of your own experience; this is useful for people seeking a steady, non-judgemental space to talk. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and then tests small changes to reduce symptoms such as anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will listen to your goals, what has worked before and what feels comfortable, then suggest approaches or a mix that fit your needs. Decisions about pace and focus are made collaboratively during the early sessions.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial expression and body language for a fuller conversation. Phone sessions work well when a lower-bandwidth option is needed or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, jotting down thoughts between sessions or when journalling in writing feels easier. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel.
