About Sallie

Sallie Edwards is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression and parenting challenges. She offers a calm, down-to-earth manner and aims to make sessions feel safe and straightforward for those who are nervous about starting therapy. She draws on person-centred ideas to make sure people feel heard and respected in sessions.

That relationship is central to her work and helps clients speak openly about what matters to them.

Background and approach

She adapts her approach to the person rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. Sallie also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical ways of changing them. She may gently challenge thinking patterns so people can notice different choices and responses in daily life.

This can be useful for panic, low mood and stress management. Her practice includes elements of psychodynamic thinking when it is helpful to look at past experiences that still affect the present. She will help clients make sense of repeated patterns and how early relationships shape feelings and behaviour today.

Sessions aim to increase self-understanding and clearer decision making. Sallie has four years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with adults on a range of issues including trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, relationship and family concerns, and neurodiversity-related parenting challenges.

People meet by video, phone or messaging, and Sallie will work at a pace that suits each person. She encourages honest conversations and practical steps so clients can find a way forward.

How Sallie’s approaches translate to online therapy

Sallie uses client-centred counselling to make people feel heard and respected. This approach focuses on listening and reflecting, helping people to explore feelings at their own pace and build trust in an online setting.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. Online sessions can include practical exercises and simple techniques to calm anxiety, change unhelpful thinking and support mood changes.

Psychodynamic ideas are used when it helps to understand patterns that started in the past. Talking through these patterns online can reveal how earlier experiences influence present behaviour and relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and agree a plan together. This collaborative process means approaches can be adjusted as therapy progresses to fit what helps most.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter reflections or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives and different schedules.
