About Sarah
Sarah King offers counselling for people facing relationship strain, family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting pressures, depression, stress and anxiety. She also helps with grief, intimacy concerns, anger, self-esteem and career uncertainty. Her practice includes support for LGBT clients and those dealing with compassion fatigue and life changes.
Sarah uses a person-centred approach that keeps the individual at the heart of sessions. She creates a warm, non-judgemental space where people are listened to and accepted.
How Sarah works
Sessions focus on the client's experience rather than giving direct instruction or quick fixes. Sessions are collaborative. Sarah reflects what she hears and may suggest short reflective exercises or share helpful information to try between appointments.
These are optional and intended to support understanding and practical coping. Clients remain in control of the pace and direction of the work. Over five years she has worked with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, bereavement, trauma responses and survivors of abuse and sexual assault.
Her experience includes addressing attachment and abandonment concerns, blended family issues, codependency and caregiver stress. Sarah describes her role as walking alongside people, helping them untangle difficult feelings and make sense of relationships and life choices. The goal is clearer self-awareness and greater acceptance rather than a quick fix.
She aims to help people feel less alone while they work through what matters to them.

Online support options
Person-centred care online and how it helps
Sarah works from a person-centred perspective that puts the client's experience first. This approach involves attentive listening, reflecting back what is said and following the client's priorities. It is helpful for things like relationship difficulties, low mood, anxiety and making sense of past hurts.She may also use reflective exercises and offer psycho-educational information to support learning between sessions. These tools are optional and chosen together, so clients remain in control of what they try and when they try it.
Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss options and adapt her style to fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online therapy makes different ways of meeting possible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more personal contact helps. Phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter reflections or ongoing check-ins across the week. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, travel or caring responsibilities and increase flexibility for people in different locations.
