About Sarah
Sarah Anderson is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom. She holds NCPS and has four years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and motivation struggles. Sarah aims to make first steps feel manageable and approachable for anyone thinking about therapy.
She creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about difficult feelings. Sessions focus on listening and understanding real concerns, not on labels. That steady, patient tone helps people begin to sort through pain and uncertainty.
Background and approach
Sarah blends approaches to match what each person needs. She draws on client-centred work to keep conversations focused on the person's priorities. Mindfulness tools are used to help with tension and intrusive thoughts.
Motivational interviewing supports people who want to change habits or find energy for their goals. Solution-focused ideas help break issues into small, practical steps that feel doable between sessions. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at patterns that repeat in relationships and life choices.
Her additional interests include adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, caregiving stress, and recovery from addiction. She also supports people facing grief, fertility questions, gender dysphoria and HIV related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.
To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a session according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches work online
The client-centred approach focuses on listening without direction and helping the person set the agenda. It is useful for people who need space to be heard and to work out what matters most to them.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple exercises to notice thoughts and bodily tension, and to respond more calmly. It can help with anxiety, stress and sleep problems by building small daily habits.
Motivational interviewing is a collaborative way to boost a person's own reasons for change. It suits people working on habits, addiction recovery or finding motivation for life goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The counsellor will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and together they will try different techniques to see what fits best. That means plans can change as progress is made.
Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people read facial cues and have nearer to a face-to-face feel, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short lunch break. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, writing out thoughts, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Together these options make it easier to work around work, family and travel commitments.
