About Sana

Sana Khwaja offers calm, direct support to people facing difficult life changes. She helps with anxiety, depression, stress, relationship strain and parenting concerns. Sana also works with issues linked to addiction, trauma and LGBT-related matters. She aims to create an open space where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgement.

Sana draws on person-centred ways of working to place the client's experience at the centre of sessions. That means listening closely, reflecting what is said and shaping each conversation around the person's needs. She also uses ideas from existential therapy to help people think about values, meaning and the choices they face.

Over five years of practice in the United Kingdom have given Sana experience with a wide range of family and parenting topics. She supports people dealing with blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment and communication problems, and fertility or postpartum challenges.

Sana is registered with the BACP, which is listed as BACP in her credentials. She works in English and accepts international clients. Her approach is practical and gentle, with an emphasis on helping people notice small changes that make life easier.

People who are curious about talking things through can expect a steady, non-judgemental presence. Sana encourages collaboration on goals and next steps so progress feels manageable and relevant to everyday life.

How client-centred and existential approaches work online

Sana uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on listening closely and reflecting back what the person says. This approach helps people feel heard and encourages them to shape sessions around their own concerns and goals.

She also draws on existential therapy, which invites people to look at values, meaning and the choices they face. That approach can help when someone is stuck on life direction, purpose or big transitions.

Finding the right way of working is part of the process. Sana will discuss goals and preferences with each person and agree together what feels most helpful. The style and pace can change over time as priorities shift.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to join from different locations, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and help people keep continuity while they travel. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which formats are offered before booking to make sure they suit your routine.
