About Sara

Sara Sukhija offers a calm, straightforward place to start when life feels overwhelming. She invites people who are struggling with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries, grief, addictive behaviour or stress to talk through what matters to them. Sara uses plain language and short sessions to help people make sense of difficult feelings and everyday struggles.

Sara is a Psychodynamic Counsellor. She trained in psychodynamic approaches and has three years of experience working with diverse concerns. Her registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) is listed as BACP, which is the credential shown in her background.

In sessions she encourages people to notice patterns from the past that keep repeating now. That can bring new understanding about attachment, abandonment, trust and self-esteem. She also supports people navigating bereavement, illness-related stress, caregiving strain, and problems linked to addiction and eating.

Sara describes her practice name as Mind Focus Counselling, reflecting growth, focus and new beginnings. She aims to offer a non-judgemental place to reflect and plan small steps forward. People often leave with clearer ways to cope and calmer thinking about next steps.

To begin, a person uses the Start Therapy button and completes a short matching questionnaire. Sessions are scheduled according to the therapist's availability and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Psychodynamic thinking and online counselling

Sara practises psychodynamic counselling, which looks at recurring emotional patterns and how past relationships shape present reactions. This approach can help with attachment worries, abandonment themes, self-esteem and persistent mood problems.

The therapeutic process is collaborative. The therapist works with each person to choose the focus and pace that suit their needs and goals. Over a few sessions they decide together whether psychodynamic work is the best way forward or whether other approaches should be tried.

Session formats are not detailed in the supplied biography, so please confirm the available online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join sessions from wherever they can be calmer and have fewer interruptions, which helps maintain continuity of care and keep progress on track.
