I am a person-centred counsellor and supervisor and have been working with people seeking change for many years. I have never yet come across anyone who's distress or anxiety or sadness didn't make sense in the context of their life experience. Every individual is different and special in my book but has in common the need to be heard, recognised, valued and understood. Those four things are at the heart of my practice. Whatever your concern or difficulty, sharing what is on your mind and in your heart in a safe space is the start of healing and self acceptance. I work online and by phone as well as face to face.

We all have those times when things get on top of us; when we feel overwhelmed, anxious, depressed and unable to cope. We can feel stuck, trapped and that there’s no way forward. Perhaps work and the daily struggles of life are dragging you down? You’re feeling frazzled, stressed and anxious and can’t see a way out? Any one of these can take its toll on your self-confidence, we lose our mojo and everyday life just feels like an uphill struggle. Therapy can give you that much needed time and space to get a fresh perspective on what’s troubling and help you to find new ways of dealing with whatever life’s throwing at you right now.

Are anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or low mood preventing you from enjoying life or feeling like yourself? Perhaps you are constantly worrying, overthinking, struggling with panic, or finding it difficult to switch off. Maybe a traumatic experience from the past continues to affect you in the present. You do not have to face these difficulties alone, and recovery is possible. My aim is not simply to help you cope with symptoms, but to support you in making meaningful and lasting changes so that you can get back to living the life you want.

Psychotherapist, MA, HCPC-Art Therap.
Serves Area
As an Art Psychotherapist, I work from a psychodynamic perspective, paying close attention to how early experiences, unconscious processes, and relational patterns shape current emotional life. I offer a consistent space to explore thoughts, feelings, and internal conflicts with depth and curiosity. Art-making provides an additional route for unconscious material to emerge and be understood. No artistic experience is needed.

Counsellor, MBACP

I can work with you to help you feel understood in a confidential, non-judgemental environment. I can help you to understand how and why you think and feel the way you do and provide coping strategies. This can enable you to develop self-confidence, self-esteem and acceptance of who you are. Self-confidence may reduce anxiety or depression and support resilience, which is the ability to recover and adjust to life’s challenges.

Hi, I’m Sarah. I imagine at the moment you might not be experiencing life as you'd hope to. Perhaps you feel anxious, sad, overwhelmed, stuck, lost, angry, frustrated, alone and/or are experiencing difficulties in your relationships. All these emotions are part of being human, but at times they can feel like they are taking over, causing distress and difficulties. It can help to talk, and I offer a gentle, respectful, kind and compassionate presence, keen to listen without judgement, welcoming the whole of you, at your own pace. I aim to be alongside you, working together to help you achieve the outcomes you desire from therapy.

I will be right beside you as you journey towards feeling more complete, more whole, more yourself. Perhaps you've forgotten what that feels like, perhaps you are not sure if you have ever known. Life can really test us, whether that was from the moment we were born, or through things that have happened along the way. Please get in touch, I am here to help.
