About me
At Find Harmony Counselling, I offer warm, person-centred counselling in Kirk Hammerton for people living with anxiety, worry or a sense of feeling overwhelmed. Perhaps your mind rarely switches off, you find yourself overthinking, or you’re carrying more than you feel able to manage. You may have become used to keeping going while finding it hard to talk about what’s really happening. You don’t have to have everything worked out before you come to counselling.
I’m Sarah, a qualified Therapeutic Counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My own experience of bereavement, grief and anxiety has helped me understand how valuable it can be to have a space where you feel listened to and accepted. I bring that personal understanding together with my professional training to offer compassionate, thoughtful support.
Our sessions are guided by you: what you want to explore, what feels manageable and the pace that feels right. I’ll listen with empathy and without judgement, so you can make sense of your experiences, understand your feelings and consider what might help you move forward. There’s no pressure to share more than you’re ready to, and you don’t need to know exactly what you need before we begin.
Alongside anxiety, I support people experiencing grief, loss and other difficult life challenges. We can start with a free phone consultation: a chance to tell me a little about what’s bringing you to counselling, ask questions and see whether working together feels right. Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you don’t have to take it alone. www.findharmonycounselling.com

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
