About Sara
Sara Deal is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to support people facing depression and other difficult feelings. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and brings eight years of overall experience to her work. Sara speaks plainly and meets people where they are.
Her sessions focus on listening and building a respectful, non-judgemental space. Conversations are shaped around each person’s needs, with practical steps agreed together.
Background and approach
She helps people talk through stress, anxiety, relationship worries, family tensions, low self-esteem, addictions, trauma and parenting strains. Sara adapts the pace and tone of sessions to suit each person. Some people come for short-term support around a specific issue.
Others work through longer-standing problems and life changes. She aims to help clients notice what matters most and to find clearer ways forward. People can expect straightforward conversation and constructive planning.
The counsellor offers a calm presence and tries to keep things simple. Goals are practical and realistic, and progress is reviewed as therapy continues. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
Sara uses a subscription model for sessions that can be cancelled at any time.

Approaches Sara lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Sara uses the person-centred style to shape conversations and goals together. She and the client will decide what pace and focus suit them, and review progress as they go. Finding the right approach is collaborative and may change over time based on needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different situations. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to use video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing reflection between meetings, or when typing feels easier. These options help fit therapy around work, family life and busy schedules.
