Calm, practical counselling for everyday challenges
About Zahrasadat
Zahrasadat Saba helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or life changes. She is Zahra Saba and she works in the United Kingdom as a BACP counsellor. She speaks English and Persian and aims to make sessions straightforward and practical.
Her approach lets the person lead the conversation. Zahra listens without judgement and focuses on what each person brings to the room. Sessions may be short term, longer term, or a single-session depending on the need.
Background and approach
Zahra uses client-centred methods alongside mindfulness and solution-focused ideas. That means she pays attention to each person's experience, helps build everyday coping skills, and looks for small steps that make a difference. She also draws on techniques from dialectical behaviour therapy and existential therapy when they suit the goals of the work.
Her background includes five years working in mental health settings with adults from varied backgrounds. She has supported people through trauma, grief, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, and struggles with self-harm or self-esteem. Zahra also offers help around career stress, relationship worries, and multicultural or immigration-related issues.
Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Zahra uses a subscription model for bookings that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Sessions & fees
Approaches that translate to online sessions
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own experience and aims to create a respectful, listening space where people set the pace and topics for discussion. It helps when someone needs to be heard and make sense of feelings.Dialectical behaviour therapy, often shortened to DBT, emphasises skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance and clearer communication. It is useful for people managing intense emotions, self-harm urges, or relationship strain.
Zahra will work with clients to find the approach that fits best. That decision is collaborative - she will discuss goals, what a person prefers, and try different ways of working until a good fit is found.
Online sessions can be arranged by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, prompts between sessions, or people who find typing easier than speaking. These options make therapy more flexible and help fit support around work, childcare or daily routines.
