About Sarah

Sarah Leppard is a counsellor who has practised in the United Kingdom for five years and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, low mood, anxiety or relationship strain. Her manner is calm and respectful and she aims to make first conversations straightforward and practical.

Her work tends to centre on everyday problems that become heavy to carry.

Background and approach

She helps people with self-esteem, motivation and career worries. She also supports those dealing with bereavement, life transitions and difficulties around intimacy and family matters. Sarah draws on several approaches to shape sessions.

Client-Centred Therapy guides the way she listens and responds so the person leads the pace. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe difficult stories about themselves and their relationships. Psychodynamic ideas can be used to look at patterns that repeat across situations.

Sessions are collaborative and adaptable. Sarah tailors the conversation to what matters most to the individual and focuses on practical steps alongside reflection. She works with issues such as addiction, compassion fatigue, chronic illness and trauma in ways that match each person’s needs.

People who contact her can expect straightforward language and a focus on what changes are possible now. The aim is to leave sessions with clearer thinking and simple, workable strategies to try between meetings.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Sarah uses Client-Centred Therapy to shape a respectful, listening-led conversation where each person sets the pace and topics. This approach helps when someone needs space to clarify feelings or regain confidence. Narrative Therapy is also part of her practice; it focuses on the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite unhelpful narratives tied to anxiety, shame or relationship patterns.

Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Sarah will discuss options with the person and try methods that fit their goals and preferences. The process is collaborative so the therapist and client can adjust direction as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions use less data and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing helps organise thoughts. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to choose the session type that best matches a person’s routine and comfort.
