About Sally

Sally Humphreys is a counsellor who uses a client-centred way of working. She aims to create calm and steadiness for people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief and trauma. Sally welcomes discussions about gender identity and LGBT concerns and offers support for relationship difficulties and abuse-related issues.

Sally trained and practises under the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has nine years of clinical experience and keeps her skills current through ongoing professional development.

Background and approach

She works from the United Kingdom and is able to connect with people who live abroad by offering online sessions. Her approach starts by listening carefully to what matters most to the person in front of her. Sessions focus on the here and now while also making room to talk about difficult past experiences such as neglect or violence.

The aim is to make everyday coping feel easier and more manageable. Sally has worked with people affected by sexual violence and delivers bereavement counselling in school settings. She also volunteers with a rape crisis service and leads a monthly bereavement support group.

These roles have shaped her practical approach to challenging emotional experiences. Practical arrangements are flexible. Sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging.

Cost follows a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and scheduling is done after completing a short matching questionnaire.

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

Working with trauma and client-centred care online

Sally uses client-centred counselling, which means she listens first and follows the pace set by the person in the room. This approach helps people feel understood and shapes sessions around what matters most to them. Trauma-focused therapy is also part of her work and involves gently addressing painful past events so symptoms like anxiety, dissociation or distress can reduce over time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sally will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and will adapt the plan as therapy unfolds. She aims to make decisions together so the approach fits the individual rather than imposing a fixed method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for a standard therapy session that mirrors face-to-face work. Phone sessions suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins or a way to work when a quick message is easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, study or family life while keeping the focus on progress and practical coping skills.
