I am an experienced psychotherapist with several years of practice supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges, including anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, PTSD, phobias, low self-esteem, relational difficulties, and mood disorders.

I also support young women, mums struggling with postpartum depression, and single parents navigating the demands of modern life.

You’ve always been the capable one. High functioning, self aware, often the one others turn to for advice. But lately everything feels heavy. You’re burnt out, emotionally overloaded, and wondering who you are underneath all the coping.
I work with women who look like they’re managing on the outside but feel anxious, overwhelmed, or stuck on the inside. This often shows up in motherhood, after difficult experiences like birth trauma, or during big life transitions. You might be tired of overthinking, holding everything together, and feeling like you’ve lost a sense of yourself.

My goal is to help and support you to develop healthy coping strategies, become more self-aware and experience personal growth. I offer tailor-made therapy that is as individual and unique as you are. Therapy shouldn't just benefit you whilst in session but continue to support you outside of the sessions too. This is achieved by using a combination of talking therapy, worksheets and practical exercises. You can always call me if you are struggling in between sessions. Do you invest more time, love and attention in others than yourself? Then perhaps it is time for you to invest in yourself.

Does it seem like others are coping better, enjoying more successful lives or more fulfilling relationships? I'm here to help. Level 7-qualified, I work at depth- engaging with underlying patterns and processes- to support your journey of self-discovery, healing and personal growth. In practice since 2015, I have supported a diverse range of clients. I work with individuals, not issues per se, hence- whether we were undertaking short or longer-term therapy- I would focus upon engaging with you as a whole person; multifaceted, with a unique history and a distinct way-of-being.

I’m Sarah Hopton, an integrative, trauma-informed psychotherapist offering real support for real people. I work with adults navigating burnout, anxiety, ADHD, addiction, and the quiet ache of feeling lost or disconnected. You don’t need the right words or a polished version of yourself—just curiosity and the willingness to begin. My style is down-to-earth and relational, helping you make sense of what’s brought you here and what’s possible next. Sessions available online, in-person, or outdoors with walk-and-talk therapy.

Hello :) My name is Cara. I am a huge believer that therapy should go beyond healing and towards empowerment! I work with people to reclaim themselves whilst experiencing distress, trauma or identity concerns. This might be people who:
• feel stuck in past relationships or experiences
• lost part of themselves through trauma
• going through major life transitions
• in emotional distress, such as depression or anxiety
• questioning purpose, meaning and spiritual values
If this resonates with you, we can work together to untangle difficult feelings, build inner safety and create meaningful self-discovery
