Sarah Rose Gibson, NCPS

Sarah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and will explain each one so you understand how they might help. One commonly used approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying different ways of looking at problems to reduce anxiety and low mood; it helps with stress, worry and negative self-beliefs. Another approach addresses patterns in relationships and attachment by looking at how early experiences shape current responses and communication; this can help with abandonment worries and repeated relationship difficulties.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through different ideas with you, check what feels useful, and adjust the approach as goals and needs become clearer. You remain involved in choosing what to try and how to measure progress.

Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Chat or messaging suits people who prefer writing or who need more frequent, brief contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
