About Sadia

Sadia Khan is a Mental Health Counsellor and Psychotherapist registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with eight years of experience. She holds two master’s degrees and has worked in several countries before settling in the United Kingdom. She supports people with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem and coping with life changes.

She practises in English and Bengali and draws on a mix of conversational and evidence-informed methods. In sessions she asks clear questions and encourages honest reflection. She is willing to challenge unhelpful patterns when that helps someone move forward.

Her background includes living and working across Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, Thailand and Singapore. That international experience shapes how she understands cultural influences on relationships and identity. People who prefer a direct, inquisitive counsellor often find this approach works well.

Sessions typically focus on identifying patterns, testing small changes and building practical ways to manage anxious thoughts and low mood. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside client-centred and narrative ideas to help people notice what matters most to them.

For someone feeling stuck after a job change, relationship ending or health shift, she helps map what has changed and what matters next. The first conversations are practical and down-to-earth, aimed at clarifying options and next steps rather than promising quick fixes.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The counsellor offers an attentive, non-directive stance so people can find their own sense of direction; this suits issues about identity, meaning and relationships.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It offers concrete strategies to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood and coping during change.

Motivational Interviewing supports people who feel stuck or unsure about change. It uses focused questions to clarify values and strengthen motivation to try different approaches.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options and agree a plan based on the person’s goals, preferences and current situation. That plan can be adjusted as sessions progress in collaboration with the client.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit those based outside the therapist’s immediate area, including international clients.
