I just had my 5th session today and looking for to more with Sanaa. I didn’t realise until today how far I’ve come in the last 5 weeks I’ve taken baby steps slowly in the right direction to my healing journey but that’s all down to having Sanaa there to guide me along the way and point out my strengths when I need to hear them! Thank you Sanaa for all you have done already! ♥️

Sanaa is incredibly patient and tentative. She listens carefully to my concerns and helps me to understand and process any thoughts that I bring up with her.

Hello, I'm Sanaa.

I know that taking the first step toward therapy can feel daunting. You might wonder if you're ready, uncertain where to begin, or nervous about opening up. These feelings are valid, and you're not alone in them.

I understand this because I’ve seen, time and again, how transformative therapy can be. I believe that healing happens when we feel truly seen and heard—that moment when someone holds space for you without judgment, when you realise you don’t have to carry everything alone. That’s why I do this work.

Seeking support is an act of courage, a commitment to yourself and your growth. Therapy isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about creating room for reflection, healing, and transformation. In our sessions, we’ll go at a pace that feels right for you—no pressure, no rush—just a safe and welcoming space where you can bring your thoughts and emotions as they are. I integrate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with humanistic principles, balancing structured tools with deep emotional exploration. I also recognise that therapy isn't one-size-fits-all—our histories, identities, and cultures shape how we experience the world. I am committed to creating a space where those complexities are honoured.

You don’t have to face everything alone. Whatever brings you here—whether you're ready to dive in or just testing the waters—I’m here to walk alongside you, every step of the way.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
