About Babita

Babita Sareen-Flora helps people work through relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, mood difficulties, anxiety and stress. She uses a mix of counselling approaches and works in a person-centred way. Babita is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has eight years' experience in the field.

She offers practical, talk-based sessions that focus on what matters to each person. That can include looking at patterns in relationships, handling strong emotions, and developing coping strategies for day-to-day life. Sessions also cover specific issues such as addiction, intimacy-related difficulties, sleeping or eating concerns, and workplace stress.

Babita adapts her approach to the person in front of her. She may draw on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred work to keep the conversation focused on the person’s priorities, and cognitive behavioural techniques to help change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours.

She has worked with people affected by neglect, emotional abuse and a range of losses. Babita also supports those coping with long-term health issues, caregiver stress, adoption and foster care matters, and identity concerns including LGBT topics. Sessions are conducted in English and Hindi and she is open to international clients.

Practical matters such as costs vary with location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a prospective client selects the Talk to a counsellor online button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and then schedules a first session.

How her approaches are used in online counselling

Babita frequently draws on attachment-based work to help people understand how early relationships influence current patterns, which can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns. She also uses client-centred counselling to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities and experience, allowing them to set the pace and topics. Cognitive behavioural therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, often with practical exercises to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and she works collaboratively to decide what fits best. That means discussing goals, trying different ways of working, and adjusting the focus as needs change over time.

Practical benefits of having sessions online include fitting counselling into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online sessions can also make it easier to arrange shorter check-ins or to attend when work or caregiving limits time away. The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking to make sure they fit your routine.
