Dementia Counselling in Manchester
You are not broken. You may be feeling emotional pain, distress, or psychological strain, but that doesn’t mean you are damaged. These responses often reflect your strength and resilience. What you're experiencing is an emotional build-up, not a breakdown. You might be living with anxiety, depression, grief, low self-worth, or trauma. Over time, you may have built defences to cope and protect yourself. These patterns helped you survive, but they are not your truest self. Healing begins by gently reconnecting with the parts of you that have been hidden, and making space for who you truly are.

I see therapy as a mindful, relational process that supports meaningful change. Part of this involves embracing a paradox—sometimes the work isn’t about changing how you feel, especially with experiences like grief or isolation, but about giving those feelings space to be explored and understood. I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can reflect, gain clarity, and begin to move forward.
My approach is primarily humanistic and person-centred, meaning you are at the centre of the work. I integrate psychodynamic, existential, and cognitive behavioural approaches where helpful, allowing therapy to be flexible.

My goal working with clients is always to provide a judgement free space, where you can come into contact with parts of yourself that seldom get seen or acknowledged. Enabling awareness of yourself in relation to the events of your life, and how new emergent choices can empower you moving forward.
I can work with a range of presenting issues, from mental health issues (such as anxiety and depression) to neurodiversity. Equally I have experience of working with clients who come from a wide range of backgrounds, specifically those from the LGBTQ+ community.

If you've got problems, I can help.. As a therapist I am happiest when I am genuinely able to make a difference to someone and help them feel better. I have had a great deal of experience of working with many different people, each one of them with their own unique story, and their own way of seeing the world, each one of them also with the problems that sometimes arise for all of us as human beings trying to live the best we can. Maybe you feel anxious and don't know why? Perhaps you've had things happen that are still affecting you?

Are you feeling anxious, depressed, stuck? Not quite yourself ? Perhaps you’re struggling with unexpected changes… difficulties in your relationship, the loss of a loved one, health problems? Or maybe you are wanting to move on from a situation that's holding you back, recover from a hurt or disappointment or regain your sense of self and what to do with your life? Whatever our age or circumstances, there are times when we could all use some support to light our way forward and to develop a deeper understanding of ourselves and our current situation.

You might be coming to therapy feeling overwhelmed, confused, or questioning yourself — not because there is something wrong with you, but because you’ve been carrying too much for too long. Many people I work with have spent years trying to cope alone or feeling misunderstood. Therapy can be a space to feel validated, understood, and less alone with what you’re experiencing. I offer a calm, compassionate and grounding space where you can slow down, feel understood, and begin to make sense of your experiences at your own pace -by listening deeply, reflecting what I notice, and gently asking questions that support self-understanding.

I hope to provide you with a sense of how I work in this profile. I am a skillful, diligent and sensitive therapist. I´ve worked for over 25 years in mental health. I have a particular interest in the way many of us still live our lives in "survival mode" and struggle to thrive. My approach is gentle yet challenging. Our work will be determined by the changes you wish to effect in your life and the pace that feels safest to you. We may explore past experiences and the way in which you adapted to "survive" - adaptations that are still present in your day to day life. This is described as a "trauma-informed" approach.

Hi, I'm Sarah. I have over 18 years experience as a counsellor. We all have times when we find it hard to cope. Counselling can help you understand why you think, feel and act like you do. It can help you develop positive strategies to get what you want out of life. How we think, feel and behave is part of being human. Problems can arise when we get 'stuck' in negative thought patterns; when our feelings become overwhelming; when our behaviour is self-destructive and doesn't result in us getting what we need; when we worry about the future, dwell on the past and find it hard to live in the present.

Loneliness isn't always about being alone.
Sometimes it's having people in your life but not feeling connected to them. Sometimes it's feeling that nobody really understands what your experience is like. Sometimes it's not having many people to turn to at all.
Over time, loneliness can become more than a feeling. It can become a way of moving through the world. You stop expecting to be understood. You carry things by yourself. You begin to wonder whether connection is something other people seem to find more easily.
