Sarah has been so wonderfully encouraging and helpful as I navigate my mental health. She actively listens, and it is clear that she holds her clients in high regard. She treated me with respect and validated my feelings as we worked toward the best actions to take. I am very grateful to her for the wonderful work we did together!

More about Sarah

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

I am licensed in the UK with 17 years of professional work experience. I am Accredited with both BACP and BABCP as a CBT Practitioner and an Integrative Counsellor.

I specialise in issues such as Anxiety, Low mood, Generalised anxiety Disorder (GAD), Acute Stress, Work-related stress, Grief, Self-esteem and adjustment difficulties.

I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. I can help you to access and harness those strengths and show you actionable strategies to help you meet your goals.

I offer short term therapy to adults (up to 8 sessions) on Monday and Tuesday daytimes. Please note that if you are late for a scheduled appointment, I can wait for 10 minutes for you before messaging and may suggest rearranging the appointment as it can become frustrating for you and challenging for us both to do the work without sufficient time.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! Please note I am unavailable on Saturdays or Sundays.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
