About Babita
Babita Sareen-Flora is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing anxiety, depression and relationship challenges. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and draws on eight years of professional experience to support practical change. Babita listens first and then works with people to find what helps most.
She places emphasis on a trusting therapeutic relationship so clients feel heard and can talk about difficult feelings without judgement.
Background and approach
Conversations are straightforward and focused on the issues the person brings in the moment. Her approach is flexible. She uses client-centred ways of working alongside cognitive behavioural ideas and attachment-informed thinking.
For trauma or deeply distressing memories she may use EMDR techniques as part of the work. The methods chosen depend on the person and their immediate needs. Babita has supported people with grief, coping with life changes, addictions, intimate difficulties and a range of stress-related problems.
She also has experience with parenting concerns, body image, caregiver stress and ADHD-related worries. Sessions can address both recent problems and longer-standing patterns. She offers sessions in English and Hindi and accepts international clients.
People typically start by describing what they want to change, then together they set simple, realistic goals and decide the best way to proceed.
How Babita’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationships and how early patterns shape current reactions; online sessions using this approach look at how people connect, respond to closeness and rebuild trust in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work, with the counsellor offering attentive listening and reflection so clients feel understood and can find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviours into smaller parts and teaches practical strategies to change them, which works well for anxiety, depression and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Babita will work collaboratively to choose methods that match the client's goals and preferences, and she will revisit the plan if something is not helping. The aim is to make steady, manageable progress together rather than follow a fixed template.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation; phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited; live chat and text work well for shorter check-ins or when writing helps to clarify thoughts. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family or travel.
