About Sally
Sally Howard is a counsellor with five years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, which reflects her professional standing in UK counselling practice. Sally focuses on supporting people through hard moments and complex feelings.
She helps people manage stress and anxiety, depression, bipolar symptoms, and difficulties with sleep and eating. She also supports those facing trauma, abuse, grief, fertility worries, and issues linked to serious illness and end-of-life care.
How Sally works
Relationship concerns, intimacy-related worries, jealousy, infidelity and commitment questions are part of her practice too. Sally works in a client-centred way, shaping conversations to each person's needs. Sessions aim to build a trusting connection, bring clarity to difficult patterns, and identify small, practical steps forward.
She draws on simple, reflective tools rather than jargon or rigid programmes. People see her for a mix of emotional and practical challenges, including parenting strain, career crossroads, compassion fatigue, addiction-related worries, and obsessive or compulsive behaviours. She also supports those dealing with postpartum issues, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and the emotional impact of cancer.
Signing up for therapy is described as a first step. Sally invites people to start with a short matching process and then plan sessions that suit their schedule. She aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where clients can talk things through and find ways to cope and move forward.

Online support options
Client-centred care and online therapy options
Sally uses client-centred therapy, which means the conversation is shaped by the person's own priorities and pace. This approach focuses on listening, reflecting feelings and helping people make sense of their experience; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, relationship worries and grief.In practice, sessions are tailored to what each person needs. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide how therapy should proceed and which ideas or exercises to try. Figuring out the right approach is part of the process rather than a single upfront choice.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging can suit those who prefer writing, need quick access between sessions, or want a flexible way to stay in touch.
These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments or mobility limits, and allow people to keep continuity of care if they move or travel. Registered or accredited professionals provide sessions and will help match the format to the client’s goals and daily life.
