Rani Sagar, BACP

Rani Sagar is a humanistic psychotherapeutic counsellor who guides people through close exploration of their thoughts, feelings and behaviours to deepen understanding of how they relate to themselves, others and the wider world.

She emphasizes a trusting therapeutic relationship as the foundation for support, helping individuals navigate difficult moments and move toward greater self-awareness, empowerment and self-acceptance.

Her practice is pluralistic - she draws on a range of theories and methods to tailor work to each person’s needs rather than applying a single fixed model.

Rani holds the BACP credential (BACP), which reflects her professional affiliation with that counselling body.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online sessions

Rani Sagar uses a blend of evidence-informed methods to support people working through relationship patterns, emotional distress and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape expectations and feelings in current connections - it helps when patterns of distance, fear of abandonment or difficulty trusting others get in the way of close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the center of the work, using empathic listening and unconditional positive regard to encourage self-directed insight and growth. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers structured skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions, which can be useful for regulating moods and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rani works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, and she adapts the work as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging makes scheduling more flexible and accessible for people with busy lives or those located outside the therapist's immediate area. These options allow continuity of care, easier appointment access and a way to engage in therapy from a familiar environment while working with a licensed professional.
