About Sandra
Sandra Xavier helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflict, grief and low self-esteem. She introduces a calm, respectful way of talking that lets people explain what matters most to them. Sandra speaks English and Hindi and works with adults in the United Kingdom.
Sandra uses listening and gentle questioning to help people notice patterns that get in the way. She treats each person as the expert on their life and builds on their existing strengths.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to make feelings clearer and to open up practical next steps people can try between meetings. Her work draws on client-centred methods that keep the person’s experience central. She also uses emotionally focused ideas to look at how feelings affect close relationships.
Psychodynamic thinking helps uncover long-standing patterns that repeat in current life and cause pain. With three years of professional experience and BACP registration, Sandra blends these approaches to match each person’s needs. She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on small, useful changes.
People often come away with clearer thinking about their relationships, grief, or sense of self. Sandra encourages anyone who feels stuck to take the next step. She supports people through honest conversations and practical planning, helping them move toward better daily coping and more satisfying connections.

Online support
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on how feelings shape important relationships. It helps identify emotional patterns that fuel arguments or distance and guides people to try different ways of connecting. This can be helpful for those struggling with relationship strain, attachment worries or repeated conflict.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sandra will explore your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Together you will decide on a plan and adapt it as therapy progresses so your sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls work well for deeper conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be quicker to arrange. Live chat or text-based messaging allow short check-ins, reflection between meetings and a flexible way to keep momentum. Registered or accredited professionals use these formats to offer a range of practical options for different schedules and communication styles.
