About me
Hi, I'm Sarah, a BACP registered therapist with ten years experience helping women work through anxiety, overwhelm, and life's transitions. This might mean navigating the end of a relationship, the loss of someone or something important, or changes like perimenopause, menopause, or fertility struggles.
What matters most to me is that you feel able to be completely honest, and that we go at a pace that works for you. My aim is to help you make sense of what you're going through, and feel calmer, clearer, and more at peace with where you are.
Every woman's experience is different, but many arrive in therapy feeling the same way - feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how they got here. You don't have to make sense of it alone, and you don't need the right words to start, just a willingness to show up and talk it through, together.
My background spans private practice, higher education, and bereavement settings, and I bring a warm, open approach to every session, gently helping you understand not just what you're feeling, but why, so meaningful change feels possible.
Finding a counsellor you feel comfortable with is so important. That's why I offer an initial consultation as a low-pressure space to share what's brought you to therapy, get a feel for how we might work together, with no obligation to continue.
If we do move forward, we'll meet at the same time each week. We can agree a set number of sessions, or keep things open-ended and check in regularly to make sure it's still working for you.
If you're thinking about starting therapy, I'd love to hear from you. Feel free to get in touch with any questions, or to arrange your initial consultation.

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.
