About me

Hi my name is Sarah and I am an integrative counsellor. I work with people both short term and long term as a one to one therapist. I draw from a number of different approaches, for you this means I can tailor each session to your individual needs.

Building a therapeutic relationship with your therapist is the most important stage, building a basis for trust so you can start to explore what is worrying you or what is stopping you from having a balanced life.

Sometimes life gets too much and we need time and space to be able to work through issues and process what is happening. Having someone to speak to who will not judge you makes a huge difference.

I work with you to look at issues that are affecting your day to day life. Exploring feeling's, belief's and behaviours and also looking at past events or learnt behaviours that can impact your life today.

I offer an initial session for a lower cost of £25 so we can meet to see if we are a good fit. It is important to get the right therapist for you. By contacting me on my email address or phone we can arrange a time to meet. If we then feel we are able to work together we can arrange weekly sessions to start our work together. If you do not feel I am the right therapist for you that is also fine and I can help you with therapists in the area that I feel you might suit. Please do get in touch for an informal chat if you feel I can help you.

I work from Soul Solutions, where I rent a room for my counselling work. Due to the current lockdown all work will be via zoom until I am able to get back into the office.

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.
