Hi I am Sarah a counsellor who helps people untie and navigate life’s ups and downs, I come armed with empathy, understanding , confidentiality and a stash of tissues. At a pace that suits you, we will find a way together through the maze of life's challenges, exploring the rollercoaster of personal struggles, in a safe space where you feel heard and understood one session at a time. I have experience of working with adults and young people. I have a diploma in Counselling and have done additional training in working with children & young people. I have a counselling room in Elgin where I can offer sessions in person or online
I have trained in various techniques and supported people in fields such as: Weight Issues, Carers, Domestic Abuse, Addictions, Veterans, Sexual Violence & Children & Young People.
I believe counselling should be personalised to meet your specific needs, building trust and allowing you to feel truly heard & understood without judgement. Get in touch If you would like to work along side each other to help you find a way through the difficult times, I look forward to hearing from you.
