About Rani
Counsellor and member of BACP with four years of practice experience, Rani Sagar works from a humanistic, client-focused perspective. She helps people talk through relationship problems, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety and stress. She also supports issues such as addictions, intimacy-related concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting strain and career questions. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients from the United Kingdom.
Rani describes her approach as pluralistic and humanistic. That means she centres the person in the room and uses different methods where they seem helpful. In practice this can mean listening closely, reflecting what is said, and introducing practical tools from approaches that fit the client's needs.
She draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current connections. She can use elements from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for emotional regulation and from Mindfulness Therapy to build present-moment awareness. Jungian ideas may be used to consider symbolic or deeper personal material when relevant.
Sessions tend to focus on what is happening now and how patterns repeat in everyday life. People can expect straightforward conversation, gentle challenge and practical options to try between sessions. Rani aims to help people notice patterns, try small changes and build stronger ways of coping.
Her background in humanistic psychotherapy means she treats people as the experts in their own lives and works beside them to make sense of difficult experiences.

How her approaches translate to online counselling
Rani uses a humanistic, pluralistic frame that can include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred work and elements of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can help with trust and intimacy issues. Client-Centred therapy focuses on listening, reflection and helping people name their experience in the present moment. Elements of DBT offer practical skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative task. The therapist will discuss goals, listen to preferences and suggest which methods to try. Plans can change as the work progresses and clients are invited to give feedback about what helps most.
