About Rani
Rani Sagar is a humanistic psychotherapeutic counsellor who helps people talk about what matters to them. She uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on understanding thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Rani aims to build a trusting relationship so people feel safe to explore difficult topics and to become more self aware and self accepting.
Her practice draws on several approaches rather than one fixed model. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships influence current ways of relating.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills are offered when people need practical tools for managing intense emotions and improving day-to-day coping. Rani also uses mindfulness exercises to help slow racing thoughts and reduce stress. Jungian concepts may be introduced to explore deeper themes and personal meaning when that fits a person’s goals.
She adapts techniques to suit each person rather than following a single playbook. With four years of experience, Rani works with a wide range of concerns. These include relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and LGBT matters.
She also supports people dealing with career strain, caregiver stress and long-term illness. Rani is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP. Sessions are offered in English and she is based in the United Kingdom.

How Rani’s approaches work online
Rani often uses attachment-based ideas and client-centred work when talking with people online. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in important relationships and how they show up now, which can help with trust and closeness issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so a person feels understood and can find their own answers.She also draws on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills for people who need clear emotion-regulation tools. DBT skills include simple strategies for managing overwhelming feelings, improving tolerance of distress and building better communication. These practical techniques can be practised between sessions and reviewed together.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. That means trying different ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting the focus as you go.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals can support people through the same kinds of issues online as in-person, while tailoring the pace and tools to everyday life.
