About Sarah
Sarah Trent is a counsellor who works with people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She uses a person-centred way of working and aims to make each session feel steady and respectful. Sarah holds a BACP credential and has six years of experience in the helping professions.
Sarah trained at the University of Warwick where she completed a BA honours in counselling and psychotherapy. Since qualifying she has worked as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach.
Background and approach
That mix of roles has given her practical experience with low mood, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and struggles with motivation and self-esteem. In sessions she focuses on listening and understanding each person’s priorities. The person-centred approach means clients set the pace and direction while Sarah offers reflection and gentle challenge.
Conversations are aimed at helping people notice unhelpful patterns and make changes they want to try. Sarah also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, loneliness, questions about life purpose and social anxiety. She keeps language straightforward and avoids jargon.
Her work emphasises respect, sensitivity and compassion as people take steps towards feeling better. People can expect practical conversations about coping strategies, values and small changes to daily routines. Sarah encourages realistic goals and regular check-ins on progress.
She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s experiences guide the work.

Focus areas and approaches
What Sarah works with
Everything Sarah lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Alongside person-centred work she draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to introduce practical coping strategies. These techniques help with anxiety, social fears and improving day-to-day routine by teaching concrete ways to manage symptoms and test new behaviours in real life.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sarah will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adapt methods to fit their needs. She treats the choice of technique as something to assess together, not a fixed prescription.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video calls let people see facial cues and body language, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier if you need a shorter check-in, and text or live chat can suit those who prefer writing or a record of messages. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or daily life and to keep continuity even when schedules change.
