About me

Hello! My name is Sarah and I would love the opportunity to get to know you.

I am a counsellor offering both in person and online counselling in Peasedown St. John just outside of Bath. Together, we will create a space that feels warm, non-judgemental and restorative and I will listen, understand and truly empathise with your personal experience.

Therapeutic change happens when you find the right counsellor for you. I will offer you all the knowledge and experience I have, but I believe that the most meaningful healing will come from our relationship and person to person connection. Never underestimate the importance of a good vibe!

I work in a predominantly person-centred way which means that our sessions will be mostly led by you. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the words for how you are feeling, and in these times, I may take a more holistic approach and use movement, breathing and creativity to work with your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will find a way for you to feel more confident, resilient and develop a greater sense of purpose and enjoyment in life.

I am passionate about helping you with whatever you may wish to work on – no issue is too big or too small.

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. My training is integrative and informed by trauma and attachment theory.

I regularly attend training courses and workshops to help me become the best counsellor for my clients and I also enjoy various books and podcasts that support my work.

I have ongoing supervision which is a space where I can reflect on my work and identify areas for professional development.

I work for an organisation that offers counselling to young people aged 10 - 25 and so a lot of my training there has been focused on supporting this age group.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

My room in Peasedown is wheelchair accessible and has free parking.
