About Sabita
Dr. Sabita Kesu welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood, grief, relationship strain or the aftermath of trauma. She presents a calm, respectful manner that aims to make it easier to bring up difficult topics and find practical ways forward.
She has 12 years of professional experience and is registered with the HCPC. Her background includes working with complex mental health issues and post-traumatic stress. She describes her style as gentle and non-judgemental and focuses on helping people notice what matters most to them.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative. The counsellor listens first, then helps build a clear plan that fits each person’s needs. Therapy can include talking through problems, learning new coping skills, and using structured techniques to reduce distress.
Dr. Kesu uses a mix of evidence-based approaches. Examples include cognitive behavioural methods to change unhelpful patterns, dialectical skills for emotion regulation, and EMDR for people affected by traumatic memories.
She adapts methods to the problem someone brings rather than following one fixed model. Her work also covers issues such as addictions, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, career stress and compassion fatigue. People can expect practical tools, paced progress and a focus on improving day-to-day functioning.
For those worried about starting, she acknowledges that first steps take courage and aims to make the process straightforward and supportive.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify personal values and take small steps toward a more meaningful life. It is useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking and behaviour patterns that keep problems going and on practising new responses to reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches practical emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that can reduce intense reactions and improve relationships.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through each method, listen to personal goals and suggest a plan that matches needs and preferences. That plan can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging which offer flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face work for skills practice and guided exercises. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a shorter check-in during a work break. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit ongoing check-ins and brief reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to work around day-to-day commitments and different time zones.
