Sana Ajaz

Hi, I'm Sana! I am a Psychologist with an Msc in Clinical psychology. I see therapy as a space where you can slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and feel comfortable being your authentic self. My approach is warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental, while being grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with adolescents and adults, adapting therapy to each person’s needs, experiences, and pace. My goal is to help you develop greater self-understanding, navigate challenges more effectively, and build healthier ways of relating to yourself and others.

My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and tailored to the person sitting in front of me. I believe there is no single “right” way to do therapy, and the process should be shaped around your experiences, needs, and pace. • A Space to Feel Heard: I focus on creating a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can speak openly, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and feel comfortable showing up as your authentic self. • Making Sense of Patterns: Using CBT and other evidence-based approaches, we explore the connection between your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and experiences. Understanding these patterns can help you develop healthier and more flexible ways of responding. • Building Emotional Awareness: I incorporate DBT and mindfulness-based techniques to help you understand and regulate difficult emotions, manage overwhelming moments, and develop a more grounded relationship with yourself. • Understanding the Bigger Picture: My trauma-informed approach means looking beyond the immediate concern and considering how your past experiences, relationships, environment, and coping patterns may be influencing your present. • Growing Together: I see therapy as a collaborative process rather than one where the therapist simply gives advice. We work together to find what is meaningful and practical for you, while I continue to learn and reflect on my own practice along the way.
