About Sandra

Sandra Henderson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 16 years of experience supporting people through difficult life moments. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, and helps people cope with major life changes. Sandra takes a calm, down-to-earth approach and treats each person as the expert in their own life.

She works from the belief that clients already have strengths to draw on.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to explore what is happening now and to build practical steps forward. Conversations are straightforward and tailored to each person’s pace and needs. Her background includes work with a wide range of concerns such as intimacy-related issues, depression, addiction, family problems and separation.

Sandra uses ideas from attachment-based approaches to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also draws on client-centred principles to keep the work focused on the person’s own goals. Cognitive behavioural ideas are used when helpful to identify unhelpful thinking and to try small behaviour changes.

Sandra also uses psychodynamic and existential perspectives at times to consider meaning, past patterns and life transitions. The mix of approaches is practical and flexible. Sandra is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.

This reflects her commitment to professional standards and ongoing development. Work is offered in English and can be arranged online across different time zones for international clients.

Ways of working Sandra names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Sandra’s approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early connections shape current patterns of relating. Online sessions explore these patterns so people can change how they respond in close relationships and feel more supported in themselves.

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the client’s priorities. This approach helps people clarify goals and find their own answers, whether they are coping with loss, stress or life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. Sandra treats therapy as a collaborative activity - she will listen to your concerns, discuss options and adapt methods to suit your goals and preferences.

Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful when visual connection matters; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels better. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel while keeping a regular rhythm of support.
