About Anuja

Anuja Sivakumaran works with people who are struggling with relationships, family conflict, low self-esteem and the effects of trauma. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through problems and explore what they want to change. Anuja presents herself as supportive and practical, helping people take early steps toward feeling better.

With three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Anuja adapts conversations and plans to suit each person's situation.

Background and approach

She focuses on areas such as abandonment, attachment difficulties and communication problems. She also helps with issues linked to guilt, shame, loneliness and uncertainty about life purpose. Her work covers common mental health concerns including depression, panic and post-traumatic stress.

She also offers support around sexuality, women's issues and building self-love. Sessions aim to identify patterns that keep people stuck and to practise small changes that build confidence. Anuja describes her approach as sensitive and compassionate.

She emphasises tailoring the dialogue and treatment plan to each individual's needs rather than offering a one-size-fits-all method. People are encouraged to set goals and move at a pace that feels manageable. Seeking change can feel daunting, and Anuja acknowledges that first step takes courage.

She positions herself as a collaborator who supports and empowers people through that journey.

How Anuja works online

Many of the techniques Anuja draws on are evidence-based and focus on understanding patterns and building new skills. One common approach helps people look at how past attachment and abandonment experiences shape current relationships, and then practise new ways of relating that feel safer. Another approach targets symptoms of trauma and post-traumatic stress by helping people name and organise distressing memories and develop steady coping strategies to reduce overwhelm.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Anuja will listen to your goals and concerns, and together you will try methods that fit your needs and preferences. She adapts plans over time so the work stays useful and manageable.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing appointments at convenient moments. If you need a shorter check-in or a session without video, discuss those options when you book. Please confirm which session formats are available with the therapist before scheduling so you know what to expect.
