More about Sarah

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • BACP

Beginning counselling takes a huge amount of courage and I consider it a privilege to work therapeutically with each one of my clients.

I provide a comfortable, warm and confidential space in which you can express yourself freely. I operate from a place of non-judgement.

I work integratively, meaning that I use a number of therapeutic models as part of my approach to best meet your needs. This includes elements of Humanistic, Existential, Psychodynamic and Behavioural Therapies.

My areas of expertise:

Living as an autistic adult

Living with ADHD

Perfectionism

'Survival Mode' (whether fight, flight, freeze, fawn or a mixture)

Dissociation/feeling numb

Depression

Anxiety

Grief/loss (in all of its forms)

Obsessive behaviours

Abandonment issues

Children of alcoholic parent(s)

The 'Parentified Child' and associated trauma

The unique challenges of working in the theatre and musical theatre industry

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
