About Sarah
Sarah Henderson is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who works from a person-centred approach. She holds NCPS as her listed credential and has four years of practice experience. She is calm and direct in sessions and aims to make the first appointments feel manageable for people who are worried or overwhelmed.
She focuses on common day-to-day struggles such as stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief, addiction concerns and issues linked to identity and gender.
Background and approach
Her work covers a wide range of life challenges including career change, parenting strain and coping with illness or chronic pain. Sarah blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. In practical terms this means she listens closely, reflects what matters to you, and then helps you test out different ways of thinking and behaving.
Sessions are collaborative and aim to produce straightforward skills you can try between appointments. Her style is respectful and solution-focused. She helps people build small, steady changes rather than pushing for sudden fixes.
When helpful she works on communication habits, unhelpful thought patterns and simple behavioural steps to reduce stress and improve sleep or motivation. People come to her for a mix of emotional support and practical strategies. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation.
The emphasis is on making therapy feel usable in real life and on building tools that fit into day-to-day routines.

Approaches Sarah 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
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. CBT offers practical exercises and manageable steps to tackle problems like anxiety, low mood, sleep difficulties or unhelpful habits.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process and happens together. The therapist will check your goals and try different techniques to see what helps most. Treatment plans are adjusted as you learn what fits best with your life and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter updates or people who prefer typing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on useful, real-world strategies and steady progress.
