About Saf
Dr. Saf Buxy helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and the fallout of past trauma. He supports people dealing with low self-esteem, depression, grief and relationship or intimacy worries. He also works with career stress, parenting strain, sleeping and eating concerns, and issues linked to identity and LGBT matters.
He has 20 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). He aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity and compassion. Conversations are adapted to each person’s situation rather than using a one-size-fits-all script.
In sessions he listens first and then helps set simple, practical goals. He focuses on what someone can try between meetings, such as small behaviour changes or new ways of thinking. He will work at a pace that suits each person and check in about what is or is not helping.
Dr. Buxy also supports people who are coping with major life changes, caregiving stress, or issues that come up around attachment and abandonment. He can help when stress builds into anger, or when confidence and motivation feel hard to find.
He accepts enquiries from outside the UK and conducts work in English. If you'd like to learn more, follow the site steps to start therapy and complete the brief matching questionnaire to arrange a first session.
Approaches that guide online work and what they do
Dr. Buxy uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people cope and move forward. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence, which can reduce anxiety and low mood and make day-to-day problems feel more manageable.Another approach emphasises gradual behavioural change. That means breaking bigger goals into small steps and trying them out between sessions to build momentum and confidence. This way often helps with motivation, sleep, addictions and rebuilding routines after a setback.
Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide which approaches match their needs, goals and preferences. If something is not helping, adjustments are made together so the work stays useful and realistic.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact formats available before booking as they are not specified in the biography. Many people find online work easier to fit into busy days, for example by removing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a lunch break. Others prefer in-depth scheduled sessions that let them focus fully on the issues at hand. The practical aim is to make therapy workable alongside everyday life and commitments.
