Anamika Saggar greets clients with a calm, practical style. She focuses on making therapy approachable and straightforward. Her work is aimed at people coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, parenting pressures and depression.

She uses a person-centred way of working that places the client’s experience at the heart of sessions. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. Solution-focused ideas are woven in to help set achievable goals and build momentum.

Background and approach

Anamika draws on 12 years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Her background includes work with the Department for Work and Pensions alongside independent practice, giving her experience of practical, everyday pressures as well as therapeutic conversations. In sessions she aims to listen actively and respond with sensitivity and respect.

People can expect conversations that are tailored to their situation, with clear steps to try between meetings. The emphasis is on collaboration and small, realistic changes. She speaks English, Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu, which can help when people want to express difficult feelings in a preferred language.

The overall aim is to support and empower clients as they take steps towards a more manageable and satisfying life.

How Anamika’s approaches work online

Attachment-based work focuses on how past relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions can help people notice attachment patterns, improve emotional connection and reduce fear around closeness or rejection.

Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience first. The therapist listens closely, reflects feelings and follows the client’s pace so people feel understood and more able to talk about hard things.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and tries practical experiments to change them. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful behaviour patterns and works well alongside video or phone sessions when homework and exercises are set between meetings.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will discuss options and work with the client to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses.

Online formats - video, phone, live chat and text messaging - make sessions flexible. Video is close to an in-person conversation, phone can fit into a short break, chat is useful for quick check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping therapeutic continuity.
