Sally Pinkus, NCPS

Sally Pinkus is a United Kingdom based counsellor and psychotherapist with three years of professional experience, offering compassionate support for a wide range of emotional and behavioural concerns. She holds NCPS, a professional registration that indicates recognised training and practice in counselling and psychotherapy. Sally works with issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and food-related difficulties, relationship and family challenges, grief, intimacy and sexual concerns, sleep problems, parenting and career questions, ADHD and bipolar-related coping, and many other life changes.

Sally draws on an integrative toolkit that includes attachment-based work, client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral techniques, hypnotherapy elements and motivational interviewing. These methods are chosen to match each person's situation, goals and preferences, so sessions can focus on building coping skills, exploring relationship patterns, addressing past hurts, improving self-esteem, or managing compulsive behaviours. Her practice welcomes clients from diverse backgrounds, including people affected by adoption and foster care, autism or Asperger syndrome, body image issues, cancer, codependency, domestic violence, and HIV/AIDS.

Sessions may take place by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, and Sally is open to working with international clients. She aims to offer a respectful, non-judgemental space where practical strategies and longer-term exploration can move clients toward clearer choices and better daily functioning.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and support

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of connecting and reacting. In practice this approach helps people understand relationship dynamics, build safer ways of relating, and heal from past relational wounds.

Client-Centered Therapy places the person at the heart of the process, using empathic listening and acceptance to help individuals explore their feelings and choices. This approach is useful for increasing self-awareness, rebuilding confidence, and navigating life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. It can be especially effective for managing anxiety, depression, compulsive habits, and developing clearer coping strategies.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Sally will collaborate with each client to identify which methods fit best with their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules, location differences and varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent sessions, access support from wherever the client is based, and choose the communication style that feels most helpful.
