about sarah

I started working in mental health during my training placement in a cancer charity in 2011. In 2013 I gained a BSc (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy and in 2016 BACP Accreditation.

To compliment my core training, I have attended trauma training, applied suicide intervention training (ASIST), anxiety awareness training, creative ways of working with childhood sexual abuse, walk-talk therapy, online counselling to name but a few.

For many years I have been working in private practice working face to face in Nottingham city centre supporting adults from many different backgrounds and with a wide array of presenting challenges such as: cancer related issues, relationship difficulties, identity crisis, grief, loss, trauma, abuse, depression, anxiety, stress, suicidality, and sexuality and gender variance.

I can work short term and long term with clients. My specialist areas are working with grief, loss and people affected by cancer (patients, family, and friends).

MY Counselling METHOD

Step 1

We start with a 30-minute initial consultation on the telephone or online to find out whether we are a good match.
Step 2

We then start building a picture of what it is like to be you. Questions are encouraged and we agree goals and a way of working together.
Step 3

We meet weekly or fortnightly for counselling sessions.
