About Anamika
Anamika Saggar is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 12 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief, parenting concerns, depression, family problems, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues. She also helps with anger, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. Sessions can be conducted in English, Hindi, Punjabi or Urdu and international clients are accepted.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside attachment-based, client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches. In sessions she listens closely and helps people name difficult emotions and patterns that keep causing pain. She also draws on solution-focused ideas to find practical steps forward where that fits.
Her style is direct and conversational. Conversations may include looking at how past attachment experiences shape current reactions, trying out new ways of talking about needs, and checking small behavioural changes that reduce stress. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to notice thoughts and test whether they help or hinder recovery.
She has worked in public services for the Department for Work and Pensions while also maintaining a private counselling practice for more than six years. That mix of settings gives experience with practical life pressures as well as longer-standing emotional concerns.
People who choose to work with her usually start by describing what they most want to change. She then helps map a short plan and monitors progress in clear, measurable steps. Sessions are offered in multiple languages to match what works best for the client.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name emotions that are hard to express, and it is often used when relationship patterns or attachment wounds keep repeating. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current reactions and helps people try new ways of relating. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what someone is feeling so they can clarify their own thoughts and decisions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, and then suggest ways of working that match those needs. That collaborative process can include drawing on more than one approach as things change.
Confirm the exact session formats available before booking, as the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and enabling sessions in a quieter moment at home or during a break. Discussing practical arrangements in the first meeting makes it easier to match session length and rhythm to everyday commitments.
