About Sandra
Sandra Ankrah offers calm, steady support for people facing hard moments. She introduces herself simply and listens first. Conversations are guided by what the person wants to address rather than a fixed script.
Sandra speaks English and Twi and works with people across the United Kingdom and internationally. Sandra trained and holds NCPS credentialing, and she brings ten years of experience to her practice. She focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, grief and depression.
Background and approach
She also helps with practical life changes, caring responsibilities and issues around self-esteem and relationships. Sessions are shaped around the individual. Sandra uses client-centred ways of working so the person sets the pace and direction.
She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas when helpful to tackle patterns of thinking and behaviour. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental. She aims to be genuine and respectful while people talk through painful or confusing topics.
Sandra adapts the conversations to meet each person’s needs and goals. People consult her about many issues including trauma and abuse, addictions, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting concerns and career stresses. She also supports those dealing with complex situations such as chronic illness, attachment questions, and divorce or separation.
Taking the first step can feel difficult. Sandra offers practical help and steady companionship as people work toward clearer thinking, better coping and more satisfying relationships.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sandra will discuss different ways of working and together agree what seems most helpful for the issue and the person's preferences. That collaborative decision can change as therapy progresses and new goals emerge.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions can be a better option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer to write, want more frequent brief contact or need flexibility across the day. These options help people access consistent support while keeping therapy practical and adaptable.
