About Anamika

Anamika Saggar welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or unsure how to move forward. She offers calm, attentive listening and practical ways to manage strong emotions like anger, anxiety and grief. Conversations are tailored to each person’s needs with kindness and clear guidance.

She uses a blend of approaches including client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy, with a solution-focused outlook. That means sessions often start by identifying a problem and then finding small, realistic steps to change things. The focus is on what is useful here and now, while also understanding how past relationships may shape current reactions.

Her style is plain and direct. She aims to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, try new ways of coping, and rebuild close connections when intimacy or communication has been damaged. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, family conflict, or the emotional fallout of separation and loss.

Anamika has 12 years of experience and holds BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy membership listed in her profile. Alongside private counselling, she works for the Department for Work and Pensions, bringing practical knowledge of everyday stress into sessions.

People who come to her can expect a respectful, non-judgemental space to talk and to plan steps forward. She encourages clients to set achievable goals and works with them to find what helps in daily life.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Anamika combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural and solution-focused ideas to help people manage strong emotions and everyday problems. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the client’s pace to build trust and clarity. Cognitive behavioural therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and tests small behavioural changes to reduce anxiety, anger or low mood. Solution-focused work prioritises practical steps and short-term goals to make quick, manageable progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss what feels most helpful, try different methods when needed, and shape sessions around your goals and preferences in a collaborative way. This means therapy can shift over time as circumstances change.

If you are considering online therapy, check the available session formats before booking as the profile does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time and allow check-ins between face-to-face meetings when those are possible. It can also offer options like phone calls when bandwidth is limited or shorter sessions for quick problem-solving. Confirm current session options when you book so you know which formats are offered.
