Sadia Khan is a mental health counsellor and psychotherapist based in the United Kingdom. She is a Registered Counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, and she holds two master’s degrees. Sadia has eight years of professional experience gained while working in several countries, and she speaks English and Bengali.

She also supports those facing relationship strain, life changes and challenges around body image or fertility. Her wider interests include attachment issues, codependency and managing feelings of isolation or emptiness. Sadia takes a collaborative, open approach in sessions. She aims to create a supportive space where people can talk honestly about their thoughts and feelings. She asks questions that help clients see patterns in their lives and begin to make different choices. She combines practical techniques with reflective conversation. That can mean working on thinking patterns, setting small goals, or telling and re-framing personal stories to find new meaning. Sadia also uses motivational strategies when clients want help making changes. Originally from Bangladesh, Sadia has lived and worked in Saudi Arabia, Thailand and Singapore. Her international experience informs how she looks at cultural background and life transitions. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

How these approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping you find your own answers. In practice this means the counsellor reflects what you say, encourages self-exploration and follows your lead to build understanding and confidence.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It often involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical exercises or small behavioural experiments to test different responses to stress and anxiety.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will talk with you about your goals and preferences and then suggest ways of working that suit you. This is a collaborative process and can change as your needs evolve.

If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the available formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow regular check-ins around work or family commitments. It can also make shorter follow-up sessions or timed goal-focused work simpler to arrange.
