Sadia Khan, BACP

Sadia Khan is a Mental Health Counsellor and Psychotherapist with eight years of practice and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has supported people with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes. She works in English and Bengali and is based in the United Kingdom.

She holds two master’s degrees and has worked in several countries including Saudi Arabia, Thailand and Singapore. Those international roles influenced how she listens and asks questions. She focuses on helping people notice thought patterns and habits that get in the way, and on practical steps to try instead.

Her style is collaborative and direct. She invites clear, honest conversation and will ask pointed questions when needed. The aim is to help people see recurring patterns from their family of origin, past relationships or life transitions, and to test new ways of responding.

She uses a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centred methods, motivational interviewing, narrative and solution-focused techniques. Sessions tend to focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts, exploring relationship patterns, and setting small, achievable goals to change daily routines.

Sadia also pays attention to attachment issues, codependency, blended family dynamics, fertility and separation concerns, body image and feelings of isolation. She helps people work through communication problems, jealousy and the emptiness that sometimes follows big life changes. Practical tools and short experiments are a common part of her work.

To start, she asks each person about their immediate goals and what has helped or hindered them before. From there she and the client plan next steps together.
