HELLO AND WELCOME TO ONLINE COUNSELLING WITH SARAH
Are you considering counselling?
I am here if you need support navigating the highs and the lows that life brings
ABOUT ME
Hi, I’m Sarah (she/her)
I am a person-centred counsellor who is passionate about supporting people to recover, heal, grow, and live their best and most authentic lives.
Sometimes all we need is someone to listen to us, and to believe in us. Counselling can provide such a space, and this is powerful enough to change lives.
Before becoming a counsellor, I studied Mathematics and worked as a secondary school teacher and personal tax accountant. These experiences have given me strong problem-solving skills and the ability to see things from different perspectives. I have also worked in NHS administration for over 17 years, so have good medical knowledge and understanding of the healthcare system and patient pathways.
COUNSELLING WITH ME
My experience
My experience
My training was in Glastonbury, so I am open-minded and can provide a psycho-spiritual approach if requested.
My professional experience includes working with adults struggling with various issues, both in-person and online, through counselling agencies. I now work in private practice as an online counsellor. I have worked with neurodivergent clients, and aim to create an accepting and safe space where individuals can unmask and be their authentic selves.
I also bring personal lived experience, which includes chronic illness, financial hardship, rebuilding identity, being othered, and surviving abuse, which deepens my empathy and ability to hold space for others. I am a committed LGBTQIA+ ally.
My approach
My experience
As a person-centred counsellor, I recognise that all of my clients are unique. They have different needs, likes and dislikes, and their own journeys. In order to best support my clients, I spend some time getting to know them and build a relationship rooted in trust, compassion, and authenticity. Together, we then explore what they need from counselling, and they set the therapeutic goals and the pace.
My role is to support clients as they process past experiences, develop self-understanding, and work towards their goals, ultimately reaching a place where they feel confident and empowered enough to no longer need counselling.
I adhere to the BACP Ethical Framework and attend regular clinical supervision to ensure my practice is safe, ethical, and effective.
