Sarah Webb

Hi, I’m Sarah and welcome to my page.

Are you feeling anxious and overwhelmed with your emotions, maybe grieving and unsure how to explain / process how your feeling? If so, I offer a supportive space where you will be listened to, not judged, where we can talk about what is troubling you.

I am a dedicated, respectful and passionate counsellor and can work on a 1 to 1 basis or with couples.  As a trauma informed therapist, I will endeavour to achieve a therapeutic, confidential and positive relationship with you in order to explore any issues that may be confusing or troubling you.  I genuinely love what I do and I deeply believe in working with the 'whole' person, rather than a 'label', so through talking, we are able to discuss your emotions and feelings and what is going on in your life and whether there is anything that you would like to change or achieve. 

To give you a bit of a background of Person-Centred Counselling, it means that you will be given my full, professional commitment, whilst we work at a pace that is suitable for you. This is to encourage / enable you to talk openly and freely about your emotions or whatever you feel is important in that moment, or what is causing an imbalance in your life. This may be things like anxiety, anger, a traumatic event in your life or it could be you would like to build on your confidence or low self-esteem.

People often say that by speaking to a counsellor, it is the first time that they have been able to express and talk about themselves and their thoughts, without being ridiculed or judged. 

When working with either individuals or couples, the aim of a talking therapy is to enable people to experience communicating or interacting in possibly new ways, that in turn nurture and allow for a deeper, emotional closeness and intimacy. Through learning to communicate effectively and exploring and uncovering elements of a relationship, from your past or present, can have powerful and often positive effects. 

Increasing an individual or a couple’s awareness and responsibility within a relationship, can help towards recognising possible defences that may have arisen or possibly any resistance to change that has been identified within a relationship.  

Couples therapy can be viewed as enriching for people who may be going through a difficult time, whilst being keen to explore their relationship at a deeper level.  

I will be supportive and understanding, in unravelling your experiences and feelings whilst working together.  We can discuss your goals and maybe expectations in the sessions, to ensure this time and space is used to meet your needs.  Likewise, when working with couples, having the safe space to unravel often deep-rooted emotions, can enable discussions to highlight strengths as well as weaknesses, thus enabling finding ways of maintaining and improving relationships, not simply saving them.

No personal judgement will be passed by myself and most importantly you will be actively listened to, for me to gain an understanding of your life from your perspective. This will help you to express your thoughts and feelings in our safe, confidential environment, whilst empowering you to implement positive changes in your life that you are comfortable with.

I have been privileged to be able to support many people through their difficult times and from these experiences I have learnt that YOU are the expert in your life, and the one who holds the answers from within. It’s for us, by working therapeutically together, to be able to untangle your feelings, further understand your lived experiences and for you to regain clarity and work towards the goals you may be looking to achieve.
