About Rani

Rani Sagar works on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety and stress, as well as issues such as addictions, intimacy problems and career concerns. She describes her way of working as humanistic and pluralistic - she helps people explore thoughts, feelings and behaviour to better understand how they relate to themselves and others. Rani is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has four years' experience in practice.

She uses a client-centred stance, which means she listens without judgement and follows the person’s lead in sessions. Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds affect present connections. Rani also draws on dialectical behaviour therapy techniques and mindfulness work to help people manage strong emotions and distress.

In practical terms she encourages clear, plain conversation about what is happening now and what changes might help. Sessions focus on thinking about patterns, noticing bodily responses, and testing small changes in how people relate to others. Jungian ideas may be used to consider personal meaning, symbols and life narratives when that is helpful.

Rani works in English and accepts international clients. She frames therapy as a collaborative process, where goals and ways of working are reviewed as progress is made. The emphasis is on understanding current difficulties and building everyday coping skills.

Her background in humanistic counselling and pluralistic practice means approaches are blended to match a person's needs rather than fixed to a single method. She has four years' experience and holds BACP registration.

How her approaches work in online sessions

Attachment-based ideas focus on patterns in relationships and early bonds; in online sessions this helps identify how current conflicts link to past connections and what to try differently. Client-centred work prioritises listening and following the person's agenda, so sessions concentrate on what matters most right now and on practical steps the person wants to take. Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for managing intense feelings and distress, such as breathing, grounding and emotion regulation exercises that can be practised between appointments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences, adjusting them as they go. This is a collaborative process that aims to find useful ways of coping and relating rather than sticking to one fixed model.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work, study or caring responsibilities and can reduce travel time. They also allow for practical uses of mindfulness and DBT exercises during the week, and for reviewing homework and skill practice between appointments.
