About Sarah - Person-Centred Therapeutic Counsellor
Hi, I'm Sarah, a person-centred therapeutic counsellor. In our work together, you will be at the heart of everything we do. I offer a safe, confidential, and comfortable space where you can open up about mental health challenges, including anxiety, grief, depression, and more.
I bring a unique blend of personal experience and professional training to my practice. After experiencing a bereavement in 2007 and seeking counselling in 2009, I found the process transformative in managing grief and anxiety. This life-changing experience inspired me to pursue counselling as a career.
In 2020, following redundancy, I reflected on my journey and chose to focus on helping others through counselling. I completed levels 2 to 4 in Therapeutic Counselling and am now a fully qualified professional. During my studies, I volunteered at Serendipity and Askham Bryan College, working with individuals from diverse backgrounds.
As a proud ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, I fully embrace and celebrate diversity, empathy, and acceptance. I am committed to creating a non-judgmental, inclusive space where everyone can feel heard, understood, and supported.
If you're seeking compassionate, person-centred counselling to help you navigate life's challenges, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
Taking the first step towards healing is a brave and important decision. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, or other mental health challenges, support is here for you.
Anxiety & Depression
If anxiety feels like a constant weight or depression feels like a dark cloud, I’m here to help you make positive changes in how you feel every day. You don’t have to go through it alone.
Bereavement
As the area contact for WAY Widowed and Young, I understand that grief is a unique and personal journey. Whether you're early in your loss or further along, I offer compassionate support along the way.
OCD
Intrusive thoughts are part of life, but when they become obsessions, it can feel overwhelming. Talking therapy can help you understand and manage this condition with care and empathy.
Trauma
Exposure to trauma can deeply impact your mental health. Whether short-term or long-term, your experience is unique, and therapy can support you in navigating recovery and managing PTSD symptoms.
LGBTQIA+
As an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community, I provide a safe, inclusive, and accepting space for everyone. You’re welcome here.
