Online support
How Sana uses therapeutic approaches online
Sana works with Existential Therapy to help people consider meaning, choice and responsibility in their lives. This approach is useful when someone feels adrift after big changes, or when questions about identity and purpose are weighing on them.She also uses Client-Centred Therapy which keeps the focus on the person's experience and pace. That means sessions tend to be led by the client's concerns, with the counsellor offering reflective listening and gentle questions to clarify what matters most.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Sana discusses goals and preferences with each person and helps decide which methods fit best. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for this kind of work. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is an issue, and live chat or text messages suit quick check-ins or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel commitments and to keep continuity across locations.
