About Sabita

Dr. Sabita Kesu helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, loss or difficult relationships. She meets each person with calm and direct support so concerns can be talked through in simple, practical ways.

Her opening focus is on what matters to the client and on small steps that make a noticeable difference. She has 12 years of experience working in the United Kingdom and is registered with HCPC.

Background and approach

Her background includes assessment, formulation and psychological intervention for people with complex mental health needs. That experience informs how she plans therapy and sets realistic goals with each person. Her work covers a wide range of issues including trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, sleeping problems and difficulties with anger and self-esteem.

She also supports people facing career change, compassion fatigue, bipolar disorder and relationship challenges. Additional areas of focus include body image, divorce and separation, jealousy and post-traumatic stress. Dr Kesu uses approaches that suit the individual.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people learn different ways of coping. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is used where trauma needs targeted work. Sessions are collaborative and practical.

She aims to help people notice what helps, try new responses, and build day-to-day routines that reduce distress. Many find that small changes in thinking and behaviour lead to steadier moods and clearer decision making.

Online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thinking and focus on actions that match their values. It is often useful for anxiety, stress and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and teaches practical skills to reduce symptoms like low mood, anxiety and sleep problems. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, includes skills in emotion regulation and distress tolerance and can help when feelings feel overwhelming.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt methods together. That collaborative process helps decide whether ACT, CBT, DBT or a mix of approaches is the best fit for the problem at hand.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, which makes therapy easier to fit around work and family life. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a low-bandwidth option. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer to write, want flexible timing, or need brief check-ins between sessions. These choices help people maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into a busy life.
