Trauma informed in her approach, she has worked extensively with people who have experienced domestic abuse and supports clients facing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, loss and bereavement, and relationship difficulties.

Humanistic and Trauma-Informed Support Online

Sara’s practice draws on a humanistic approach, which focuses on understanding the whole person and supporting clients to discover their own strengths and values. This approach is useful for people feeling stuck, exploring identity, or rebuilding self-esteem. She also works in a trauma-informed way - recognising how past harm can shape current reactions and pacing work to match each person’s readiness and safety. In addition, her background in holistic therapies informs a practical, wellbeing-oriented perspective that considers how lifestyle and physical self-care connect with emotional recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sara works collaboratively with clients to identify what feels most helpful based on their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting methods as therapy progresses so the work remains relevant and effective.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people juggling work, family or mobility limitations. These formats allow registered professionals and therapists to provide consistent, accessible support from different locations while making it easier to fit sessions into everyday life.
