About Sarah

Sarah Labbett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who brings five years of professional practice to her work. She helps people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety or depression. She also supports those dealing with relationship or family tensions, grief, and the effects of trauma and abuse.

Sarah works in a straightforward, respectful way. She listens first and adapts conversations to what each person needs. She aims to make sessions feel manageable for someone juggling work, family or other responsibilities.

Background and approach

In sessions she draws on a mix of approaches, including client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural ideas, and mindfulness techniques. She can use these to help with unhelpful thinking patterns, emotional regulation and day-to-day coping strategies. She has particular experience with issues such as OCD and intrusive thoughts, addictions, intimacy-related concerns and body image.

She also addresses challenges like parenting strain, compassion fatigue and career-related stress. Sarah is registered with the BACP, which is noted in her professional details. She offers appointments in English and works with people who live in the UK.

To begin she asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arranges sessions to suit their schedules.

Ways of working Sarah names

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

Approaches that inform online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on empathic listening and helping a person find their own solutions; it is useful when someone needs a non-judgemental space to talk through difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage intrusive thoughts and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can reduce stress and improve sleep and concentration.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try out methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That way the person and therapist make decisions together about which tools to use and when to change direction.

Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls approximate an in-person conversation and allow visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be a better fit for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter updates or moments when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caring duties and daily routines while keeping the focus on practical progress.
