Sara Sukhija

Sara Sukhija is a psychodynamic counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and eating or body image concerns. She works with individuals who feel stuck, distressed or unsure how to move forward. Her approach aims to make difficult thoughts and feelings easier to understand so clients can make clearer choices in day-to-day life.

Her work focuses on exploring patterns that link past experience and present behaviour. Sessions look at relationships, attachment and how early events may influence current emotions. This can help when coping with grief, loss, trauma, addictions or repeated cycles that cause pain.

Sara trained and practises psychodynamic therapy and uses that framework to guide conversations. She listens for recurring themes, offers reflections and helps clients notice how they relate to themselves and others. The emphasis is on understanding rather than quick fixes, with steady support to build insight and change.

Sara has three years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She runs a practice called Mind Focus Counselling and draws on that name to offer a calm, focused space for work on healing and growth.

Sessions are conducted in English and are based in the United Kingdom. Prospective clients are asked to check current session options before booking and to follow the site process to match with the therapist.

How psychodynamic work fits with online therapy

Sara practises psychodynamic therapy, which looks at how past relationships and early experiences shape present feelings and behaviour. This approach helps when people notice repeating patterns, have difficulty with intimacy or struggle with longstanding anxiety or low self-worth.

Psychodynamic work in sessions involves talking through thoughts and memories to uncover themes that repeat in current life. The aim is to increase self-understanding so people can choose different ways of responding rather than being led by old habits.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and tailor work to the client's goals and preferences. Together they review what is helpful and adjust the direction of sessions as progress or new issues appear.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy routine and reducing travel time. People often find it easier to keep appointments around work or caregiving commitments and to maintain continuity of care. Confirm the specific session options available with the therapist before booking to make sure they suit your needs.
