“What you think, you become. What you feel, you attract. What you imagine, you create.” — Buddha

I am Sarra Awan, a qualified Psychotherapist and Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapist for children, teenagers and adults, located in Chelsea, Central London

Are you feeling stuck in your thoughts, overwhelmed by emotions, or simply unsure how to move forward?

You’re not alone—and more importantly, you're not without options.

Whether it’s anxiety, panic attacks, low confidence, past trauma, or patterns that no longer serve you, it’s possible to create meaningful change. That begins with learning how to respond differently—not just why things feel the way they do.


At my Chelsea practice, I offer a focused, structured approach that combines Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with Evidence-Based Hypnotherapy.


Known as Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy (CBH), this work is goal-oriented, present-focused, and designed to help you take practical steps forward—with greater confidence, calm, and clarity.

Focused Therapy. Practical Tools. Long-term results

You don’t need years of therapy. You need the right tools, a clear plan, and support that works in the real world.

CBH can support you with:

  • Anxiety, depression, stress and panic attacks
  • Trauma and PTSD recovery
  • Low self-esteem and confidence
  • Emotional regulation and overwhelm
  • Repetitive behaviours or unhelpful patterns
  • Supporting your child or adolescent through emotional challenges and development

I work with adults, adolescents, and children, adjusting the approach to meet your needs and pace.

Each session is structured to be solution-focused and practical, so you leave with tools and strategies you can apply right away.

The aim : To Help You Become Your Own Therapist

The most valuable outcome of therapy is not dependence- but resilience.

In our time together, we focus on:

  • Shifting limiting unhelpful thought patterns
  • Building emotional awareness and regulation
  • Strengthening decision-making and self-trust
  • Developing coping skills for future challenges

So when life gets tough again (as it does), you have a solid foundation to return to.

What makes this approach different?

✔ Evidence-based and clinically grounded

✔ Efficient, Present-focused and goal-oriented

✔ Tailored to you

✔ Calm, respectful, and supportive

✔ Suitable for adults, adolescents, and children

Ready to Take the First Step?

If you are looking for a space to reflect and the tools to move forward with confidence, calm, and control—I’m here to help you create real, lasting change.
