How Sarah-Jane works

Sarah-Jane aims to be respectful and sensitive, and she explains options in clear language. Her approach draws on ways of working that look at relationships and life stories to make sense of problems. She also uses trauma-focused techniques when past harm is affecting day-to-day life.

This combination helps people understand patterns and practice different responses. Sarah-Jane has worked with issues such as bereavement, anger, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, and addiction. She can also support people dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness, adoption and attachment questions, and separation or divorce.

Her professional registration is with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Sessions are available in English and delivered online by video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them.

Online support options

How attachment, narrative and trauma work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions use conversations to notice patterns and to practise new ways of connecting with others, which can reduce isolation and reactivity.

Client-centred work focuses on listening and following the person’s pace. The counsellor offers empathy and support while the person leads the topics, helping them make sense of change and decide what matters next.

Trauma-focused approaches help people carefully process past harm so memories and triggers stop controlling daily life. In online sessions this can mean building safety, naming what happened and working step-by-step through upsetting memories at a comfortable pace.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, explain options and adapt methods to fit each person’s needs and preferences. That collaborative process helps identify whether attachment, narrative or trauma-focused work is most useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit brief check-ins or those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties and daily life while still working with registered or accredited professionals.

A practical next step

Write down two things you would want to be different in six months. That is the most useful thing to bring to a first session, whoever it is with. If you would rather start now than keep reading, online sessions are the quickest route.
