About Sanaa
Sanaa Baksh is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. Sanaa speaks English and Arabic and aims to make the first steps into therapy straightforward and approachable.
She uses a mix of structured strategies and person-centred care to help people manage stress, anxiety and depression. Sessions focus on practical steps you can try between meetings alongside time to talk through feelings about relationships, family pressures and self-esteem.
Background and approach
Sanaa also supports people dealing with panic attacks, cultural or immigration concerns, and the weight of guilt or shame. Her background includes a BA Hons in Counselling and a foundation degree in counselling psychology. She also holds diplomas and certificates covering Islamic counselling, children and young people, online counselling, and counselling skills.
Sanaa has undertaken training in areas such as domestic abuse, safeguarding adults and children, and suicide awareness. In sessions she pays attention to how attachment and communication patterns affect daily life. She helps people explore control issues, feelings of emptiness, and family problems while offering tools for better coping after disasters or during end-of-life situations.
Her approach is sensitive to multicultural experiences and the specific pressures they can bring. Therapy with Sanaa is collaborative and paced to the individual. She encourages small, achievable changes and supports people as they work through difficult decisions and personal goals.

Online support
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. This might mean trying a more structured technique for a few sessions, then shifting to deeper emotional work as trust grows.
Online therapy offers flexibility that fits different lives. Video calls recreate face-to-face interaction for more in-depth sessions, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing, want to reflect between messages, or need support outside typical hours. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family commitments and travel, while still receiving consistent therapeutic support from registered or accredited professionals.
