About Sara
Sara Sukhija is a counsellor who helps people find calmer, more manageable ways of living. She speaks plainly and listens closely so people can tell their story and start to make sense of what they are feeling. Sara uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat in a person's life.
She helps people notice how past experiences can shape current reactions. Sessions are a place to talk openly about anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship difficulties, addictions and other concerns.
Background and approach
Her practice name is Mind Focus Counselling, a phrase she chose to reflect strength, hope and new starts. Sara has three years' experience working with a range of issues including stress, depression, trauma and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, body image worries and difficult life changes.
Sara offers sessions in English and works with people in the United Kingdom. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging as ways to connect. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work and family life.
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. Sara aims to create a calm, steady space where people can explore feelings, understand patterns and make practical changes that matter to them.

Ways of working Sara names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Psychodynamic support available online
Sara uses psychodynamic therapy to help people make sense of recurring patterns. This approach looks at how past relationships and early experiences can shape current feelings, and it can help with anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and grief.She offers a thoughtful, listening-based way of working where the focus is on understanding feelings and patterns rather than quick fixes. The therapist will work together with each person to find what feels most useful, adjusting the approach to match goals and preferences through a collaborative process.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation when time and location allow. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer writing or who need flexibility during busy days. These formats make it easier to fit counselling into work and home schedules and to maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are not possible.
