Sarah Dean FdSc MBACP
About me
We can all find life hard at times. It can throw up difficulties that feel overwhelming and out of our control. I support adults and teenagers through challenging times and help them to initiate change and restore balance in their lives.
When we experience distress, sadness, loneliness, anxiety or depressed mood, it can feel difficult to bear and leave us feeling powerless. Counselling means that you need not face these issues alone; that you can feel safe and supported.
Combining CBT and a deeper talking therapy, I can help you to have a greater understanding of yourself, your situation and your choices. I am here to help you make sense of the issues you are facing and increase your awareness of the ways in which you can regain power and control over your life.
My sessions offer a warm, confidential, safe space for you to explore your concerns and help to increase your confidence and resilience.
I work with a range of issues including:
Anxiety
Depression
Bereavement
Autism/Asperger Syndrome
Low self esteem
Relationship difficulties
Stress
Transgender
Emotional and Sexual abuse
Not attending school
Self harm
I am passionate about the power that counselling has to change people's lives for the better.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
