About Sadie
Sadie Paulucy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. She works with a wide range of concerns including depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, and challenges such as sleep or eating difficulties.
Sadie uses a down-to-earth style and aims to make starting therapy feel achievable for someone who is worried or unsure. She draws on nine years of clinical experience and a range of approaches to shape each session around the person in front of her.
Background and approach
That might mean working on practical strategies for anxiety one week and looking at attachment patterns from earlier relationships the next. Sessions are collaborative - Sadie listens, reflects, and helps people decide what matters most to work on. Sadie uses Trauma-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and client-centred techniques.
These methods help with managing distressing memories, changing unhelpful thought patterns, and building clearer values-based goals. She also pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions and relationships. People who come to her often want to stop repeating the same painful patterns, cope better with life changes, or reduce overwhelming emotion.
Sadie helps clients develop skills to manage symptoms and explore underlying causes at a pace that feels safe. Her BACP credential is shown as part of her professional standing. Sessions are offered online in English, and Sadie accepts international clients.
Practical matters such as session format and timing are arranged after an initial matching step.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process distressing memories and reduce their day-to-day impact. In sessions this often involves gradual exploration of difficult events, learning ways to manage strong feelings, and building skills to feel more grounded when memories surface.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on what matters most to a person and on making small changes that align with those values. It uses practical exercises to notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and to take committed steps towards chosen goals.
Attachment-Based approaches look at how early relationships shape current ways of relating. Online work can help people recognise patterns, practice new communication styles, and build more supported ways of connecting with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that fit a person's needs, goals and preferences, and can adjust the plan as progress is made. Clients help set the pace and priorities throughout.
Online sessions are offered by registered or accredited professionals via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for real-time conversation and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use a camera. Live chat or text messaging can suit brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or people who find typing easier than speaking. These formats offer flexibility to fit therapy around work, caring responsibilities or travel.
