After just one month of therapy with Sarah I’ve come so far. Quite literally feels like on a mental and soul level I’ve started over with a clean slate.
More about Sarah
- 13 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a qualified Person Centred counsellor with 13 years professional work experience. I am a registered member of British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy and as such adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework for Good Practice and also the BACP Guidelines for Online Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I specialise in bereavement, traumatic loss and PTSD, I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, OCD, and clients who have been diagnosed with a personality disorder and Bipolar. I have also helped many clients who have experienced childhood and adult trauma, physical, emotional and sexual abuse.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with compassion, respect and sensitivity.
My approach is mainly Person-Centred, along with solution focussed and humanistic therapies. The underpinning principles of the Person-Centred Approach are focused on the counsellor being honest, non-judgmental and fully accepting whilst being fully integrated in the relationship allowing the client to lead and set the pace. I aim to offer these conditions as best as I can during our working relationship.
It takes a lot of courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. I am here to support and empower you in that journey.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

After just one month of therapy with Sarah I’ve come so far. Quite literally feels like on a mental and soul level I’ve started over with a clean slate.
Sarah has been a great help to me and always there when I need her, I’ve seen a big improvement within myself and I’ve only had 3 sessions.
I haven't really clicked with therapists in the past but after a couple of sessions with Sarah, I feel very relaxed and her approach is great and she has lots of useful resources. Will continue with Sarah for the foreseeable!
She's great, very understanding and made me feel safe by just the first session, i recommended her to my friends and i recommend to everyone too
In your 2 session she has really helped my understand what I’m going through and made me able to refocus on what’s important to me and most of all I’ve been a lot happier
Just as needed. Available and always there
A good therapist with a lot of background knowledge, good listening and helpful tips
