Sarah Clark (MA, PGDip, RMBACP) Relate Trained: Couples, Individuals & Families

About me

Welcome! I am a Counsellor and Relationship Therapist with 25 years’ experience working with people going through difficult times. Trained with Relate, I work with individuals, couples and families, believing that everyone has their own unique experience of life and their own understanding of what it is that brings them to see me.

I do not know what your current situation is, but I am guessing that you or someone close to you is:

• experiencing confusion, sadness, anxiety or fear
• facing a dilemma
• struggling with a relationship
• dealing with illness or bereavement
• in emotional distress

You may have been grappling with the situation for a while or it may just have come upon you, but the fact that you are visiting this website tells me you would like help and support.

It can be a struggle to deal with difficulties alone. My aim is to provide a safe place to talk openly and in confidence. My hope is that together we will find a way to look differently at what you are going through and for you to gain some relief from this.

Whatever gender, race, sexuality or class you identify as, whatever your physical or mental health or disability, any religion or none, I will listen and talk to you with respect, honesty and compassion.

I offer expertise gained from the 20 years I worked as a Social Worker in Adult Social Care as well as the 13 years I have worked as a Therapist. I work for Relate alongside my private practice and have worked in hospices, hospitals and the community with adults experiencing illness, disability and emotional distress.

Over the years, I have gathered a range of knowledge and techniques. I tailor these to the individual, couple or family I am talking with and to what is troubling them. However, my overall practice is guided by the integration of Systemic and Psychodynamic Theory. Put simply, this means that I am curious about what is happening to you at present as well as what experiences you may have had in childhood and in your life up to now.
