About Sarah

Sarah Trent offers a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience at the heart of sessions. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, depression and relationship worries in everyday language. Sarah is a BACP counsellor with six years of practice in the field.

Sarah trained at the University of Warwick where she completed a BA Honours in counselling and psychotherapy. She has worked as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach, supporting people through trauma and abuse as well as issues around self-esteem and motivation.

Background and approach

Her background means she is used to helping people untangle difficult feelings and find steady next steps. In sessions she uses person-centred principles, listening without judgement and following each person's pace. That approach is flexible and adapts to what someone needs in the moment, whether that is space to reflect or practical steps to try between meetings.

She also draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms like social anxiety and phobia. Sarah is used to working with feelings of guilt, shame and isolation, and with people searching for life purpose or struggling with low confidence. She aims to help clients build more confidence in themselves and clearer ways to manage difficult days.

Her sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom and are available through online formats. The focus is on supporting people to make manageable changes and feel more in control of their lives.

Focus areas and approaches

Everything Sarah lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

How person-centred work and online therapy fit together

Sarah primarily uses a person-centred approach, which focuses on listening closely and allowing each person to shape the direction of therapy. This method helps when someone needs time to understand their feelings and make decisions at their own speed.

She also uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to tackle specific symptoms like anxiety, social phobia and low mood. These techniques include practical exercises and small experiments to try between sessions, which can reduce anxiety and build confidence over time.

Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with you about your goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That collaborative planning can be adjusted as you progress so the work stays relevant to your needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy lives. Video calls are useful for fuller face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are lower bandwidth and easier when movement is needed, live chat works well for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing short reflections. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and to fit therapy into a working day or family life.
