About Sara
Sara Roberts is a counsellor with 15 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and works in the United Kingdom. Sara aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can speak honestly about what is hard for them.
Her way of working puts the person at the centre of the session. She follows a client-centred approach that invites each person to lead the conversation.
Background and approach
That can feel strange at first and sometimes brings quiet moments, but those pauses often help people find what matters most to them. Sara also uses mindfulness approaches to help people notice thoughts and bodily reactions. Mindfulness can be useful for stress, anxiety, grief and low mood because it teaches simple ways to be present with difficult feelings.
Sessions are practical and grounded. Sara listens without judgment and helps people notice patterns in relationships, thoughts and coping. She supports people facing parenting strain, career stress, compassion fatigue and life changes, as well as survivors of trauma and abuse.
Working with Sara typically begins by identifying immediate concerns and simple steps to ease pressure. Over time the work often moves to clearer communication, managing intense emotions and building a steadier sense of self. She aims to help people feel more able to cope and make clearer choices about next steps.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Sara uses client-centred work and mindfulness in online sessions. Client-Centred Therapy means the person guides the conversation while the counsellor listens, reflects and asks questions that help the person notice what matters. This approach supports issues like relationship problems, low self-esteem and decision-making by focusing on the person’s priorities.Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention skills to notice thoughts, body sensations and emotions without getting overwhelmed. In practice this can help with stress, anxiety, grief and anger by giving short, repeatable techniques someone can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Sara collaborates with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. Together they set goals and try things out, adjusting the plan as needed to match the person’s needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit around life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or fit into a work break, and messaging or live chat suit people who prefer writing or need a lower-bandwidth option. These formats aim to increase flexibility and access while keeping the focus on the person’s goals and progress.
