Sunita Anand

My availability is Monday to Thursday, 9 am to 8 pm, and Saturday, 9 am to 12 pm.

I offer flexible hours to suit us both.

I am a Humanistic counsellor working integratively with strong influences from Gestalt and Systemic therapy. My approach is relational, collaborative and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when we feel seen, understood and supported to explore ourselves with compassion.

Gestalt therapy shapes the way I pay attention to the “here-and-now” of your experience: how emotions show up, how you relate to others and how you relate to yourself. Together we explore patterns such as pleasing, withdrawing, overthinking, shutting down or pushing through. These patterns often made sense at one stage of life but become limiting over time. Becoming aware of them can create space for change.

Systemic thinking helps us look at the bigger picture—family roles, cultural messages, gender expectations and the stories we inherit. This can reduce shame and self-blame by recognising that many struggles are understandable responses to our environment. It also allows us to explore relationships more deeply, including communication, conflict, intimacy, boundaries and attachment.

My style tends to suit people who are looking for depth and insight, who want to understand themselves and their relationships better, or who are navigating transitions, identity questions or complex family dynamics. Clients often tell me they value the warmth, clarity and thoughtfulness of the space we create together.

My approach is relational, compassionate, and collaborative. I work integratively, drawing on:

Humanistic principles, which prioritise your autonomy, lived experience, and emotional truth.

Gestalt therapy, which focuses on what’s happening for you in the present moment—how you feel, what your body tells you, and how your patterns of relating show up in daily life.

Systemic thinking, which helps us explore how your relationships, family dynamics, and wider social or cultural contexts may be shaping your experiences.

You might find that our work includes gently noticing how you’re feeling in the room, bringing awareness to relational patterns, or exploring creative ways of expression. I believe in working at your pace, and I’ll always check in with you about what feels right.

Clients often come to me when they feel stuck, overwhelmed, or confused by their emotions, relationships, or patterns. Therapy offers a space to slow down, understand what’s going on beneath the surface, and begin to make different choices. Rather than focusing only on problems or labels, I work with the whole person—your thoughts, feelings, relationships, body, history, and hopes for the future.

Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, struggling in relationships, or simply wanting space to reflect and grow—I’m here to walk alongside you.

If you'd like to learn more or book an initial session, please feel free to get in touch. I can also offer a complimentary 15-minute video call to answer your questions.

My first session is an initial assessment, and I charge £50 for 50-minute session. 

In our first session we take time to get to know each other and explore what brings you to therapy. I see this as an assessment session, but not in a clinical or pressured way. It’s an opportunity for you to share at your pace, ask questions, and get a sense of how I work. I’ll invite you to talk about what you’re hoping for, what feels difficult right now, and what would make therapy feel helpful and safe for you. From there, we can decide together whether we’re a good fit and how we might continue working.
