I have 20 years experience working within the NHS, 10 years as a registered Mental Health Nurse and 10 years as a CBT Therapist. As a CBT Therapist I have worked within Primary care, with Anxiety disorders including PTSD, Generalised Anxiety, OCD, Panic, Phobias and also mood disorders. Within secondary care I specialised working with individuals with severe and enduring mental health problems such as Psychosis and Bi Polar disorder. Due to my experience within mental health I am able to adapt to the needs of a wide range of people, offering a safe space to explore and help you work through your difficulties.

Hi there! Thanks for taking a look at my profile-I hope that you feel able to contact me to arrange an appointment. My name is Sarah and I’m a Chartered Clinical Psychologist registered with the British Psychological Society and the Health and Care Professions Council. I have over 10 years of experience working within mental health services offering assessment and therapeutic intervention for a broad range of emotional difficulties. I offer specialist psychological assessment and intervention to adolescents and adults at my Chelmsford clinic or at their home address.

Whether you are an adult who needs to talk about how you feel or a brother, sister who needs assistance to explore difficult times, I can assist, I work with young people and adults. In a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space, I can offer you a listening ear and together we can go on a journey to which we can explore your issue. You are the person who knows what is best for you but maybe I can assist you to find this.

I am a fully qualified and insured counsellor. I trained Integratively, which means I use a range of different theories and modalities to support my clients depending on what you need. It might be that you want to look at events from your past that you feel are holding you back or it might be that you want to concentrate on what is going on for you in the here and now, we can do either or both. I have extensive experience working with a wide range of issues and can help support you by offering space for you to work through whatever it is that you are struggling with right now.

Our aim at the Chelmsford Counselling and Therapy Centre is to inspire growth , help clients bring about change leading to self - fulfilment. I work along side a group of Counsellors and Therapists so be can be very responsive to client needs. We work with adults, children as well as couples.We also offer a low cost Counselling Service for individual adults provided by Counsellors in training.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to view my profile. Counselling is a unique and often life changing endeavour. It takes courage and strength to acknowledge a personal need to attend to difficult life experiences, or work towards improving mental health, wellbeing and quality of life.

I always believed therapy should be approachable if someone needed it ideally without a waiting list. The worst thing to happen when you finally tell yourself you are strong enough to ask for help is to be sat on a waiting list. It is also the case if you can see your loved ones struggling. I believe in providing a safe, confidential space where the client comes first. I keep my clients at the core of my therapy and whatever the issues it is treated with focus and empathy. To me, talking through things eases a large amount of the problem so I made sure I can offer that to others.

Entering into counselling is a decision that takes thought and consideration. It is an unknown experience that can be daunting and scary, and you could be unsure of what to expect. It is often about gaining a greater understanding of where we find ourselves now as well as giving a voice to our experiences and feelings, often for the first time. Whatever it is that brings you to counselling we will work together with a freedom for you to "be" without judgement or expectation in a safe, confidential and compassionate space. Our aim is to work towards a brighter and more positive future for you.

There are times in our lives when we're not OK, when we believe that no one understands our struggles, that we alone should fix them, or that things will never change. But it needn't be like this. I specialise in supporting people experiencing: various forms of anxiety (including social, health, stress, work-place) • low-mood and depression • effects of trauma • low self-esteem • addictions and substance dependency • relationship issues.

I have always strived to understand feelings, behaviour and the human mind; always been driven toward solving the questions that start with why. My personal experiences of therapy have equipped me with the insight, empathy and additional tools to help others and increase my skillset as a counsellor. I am very enthusiastic and passionate about helping others-

Are you looking for a younger person to work with in therapy? Or you may be a young person yourself. I am a trained counsellor and coach - a qualification gained after a degree in Psychology. Our work together will provide you with somewhere you can talk openly, where you can come each week to say what you’ve been wanting to say, and feel what you’ve been wanting to feel. All of our lives are complex, and all of them have challenges. However, we don’t always have a space to process these challenges. We can find, together, what changes and resolutions might help.

I help people to overcome and lessen their feelings of anxiety. I also help people who have intrusive thoughts or tend to catastrophise. I work with couples to strengthen their relationships and communication and solve the problems affecting their relationships. I help individuals to come to terms with and process previous trauma, family issues, difficult relationships. I also work with people who are feeling low, depressed, grieving or stressed and help you to find new ways to start living the life you want to live. What is it that has bought you here today?
