About Sandra

Sandra Ankrah is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and major life changes. She speaks English and Twi and works with adults on issues like relationships, self-esteem, parenting concerns, addiction and trauma. Sandra brings a calm, non-judgemental presence and aims to make it easier to talk about painful topics.

Sandra trained in counselling and has around 10 years of professional experience. She is registered with NCPS, which she follows in her practice.

Background and approach

Her way of working is rooted in a person-centred attitude - she listens, reflects and adapts to what each person needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all plan. In sessions she mixes straightforward, practical tools with reflective conversation. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments.

Psychodynamic ideas can help people understand patterns that repeat in relationships and mood. Sandra also draws on solution-focused strategies to set clear, achievable goals for change. This means sessions can be used to solve immediate problems as well as look at deeper issues over time.

She tailors the pace and methods to each individual’s needs. People who choose Sandra can expect an approachable counsellor who values respect and sensitivity. Her work often addresses grief, family stress, caregiving strain, chronic health challenges, and issues linked to identity and attachment.

She aims to walk alongside clients as they find clearer ways forward.

Approaches online and what they look like

Online work with Sandra draws on person-centred methods and cognitive behavioural approaches to support people through difficult moments and longer-term struggles. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement, helping someone feel heard and understood so they can explore what matters to them. It suits people who want a supportive, accepting space to talk things through.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviours. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and coping with stress because it gives clear steps to practise between sessions. Sandra may also use solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and track small changes that build confidence.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Sandra will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and can adapt the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues, phone can be easier when internet is limited, and messaging is useful for quick check-ins or shorter exchanges. These options help fit therapy around work, family or caregiving duties and make it simpler to keep a regular schedule.
