Counselling and Psychotherapeutic Approach

Sarah’s main focus when working with a client is to build a safe, honest and trusting relationship so that you can feel comfortable to open up and explore what’s challenging you and know you will be supported with whatever you are bringing.

Sarah integrates different therapeutic approaches in her work, in response to each client’s individual needs, including somatic psychotherapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, mindfulness, gestalt, transpersonal psychotherapy, CBT and ACT.
