About Sarah
Sarah Slade is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, career worries and depression. She introduces a calm, respectful approach and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried about asking for help. Sarah works to match sessions to each person's needs.
She listens without judgement and helps people set clear, realistic goals. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to feel steadier day to day.
Background and approach
Her practice draws on client-centred methods that put the person's experience at the heart of sessions. She also uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT to help people notice thinking patterns and try different ways of responding. Sarah has four years of professional experience and holds BACP.
She offers a steady, empathetic presence and keeps sessions focused on what matters most to each client. Many people come wanting coping strategies, clearer thinking, or support through a life change. Sessions are structured but flexible, with room for talking, practical exercises and review.
Sarah explains options and works together with each person to decide what to try next. She aims to make the process understandable and useful from the first meeting.

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
Finding the best approach is part of the process. The counsellor will discuss goals, try out techniques and adapt plans if something does not fit. That collaborative stance helps people feel more in control of the work and more able to test what helps in everyday life.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions suit those who prefer not to use video or need lower bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, practical problem solving or when a written conversation is easier to fit into a busy day. These options make it simpler to keep continuity of care and to fit sessions around work and family commitments.
