About Sarah

Sarah Slade is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career worries and life changes. She works with people facing depression and the strain that family issues can cause. She approaches each person with respect and sensitivity, and aims to make the first step feel less daunting.

Sessions are shaped around what each person needs. She listens actively and reflects what she hears so people can make sense of their feelings.

Background and approach

Practical steps and thought-pattern work are offered where helpful, along with space to talk through loss and change. Sarah uses client-centred ways of working that focus on the person in front of her. That means the conversation is guided by the client’s concerns and pace.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try out different ways of responding. She has four years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration is part of her background and professional standing.

People can expect approachable, down-to-earth sessions that balance listening with practical ideas. Sarah supports people as they explore options, build coping skills and plan next steps. The overall aim is to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day life.

How Sarah’s approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person and their experience. Sessions give people time to talk while the counsellor reflects and follows their lead. This helps when someone needs a safe space to make sense of strong feelings.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thinking and try new ways of coping. This approach is often useful for anxiety, low mood and when someone wants concrete steps to feel better.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. Sarah will talk with people about their goals and preferences and agree together which approach to use. The choice can change as therapy progresses, and sessions are adjusted to match what is most helpful.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a fuller face-to-face conversation, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing or want flexible, quick exchanges. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, family and daily life, and help people keep continuity even when schedules change.
