About Sarah

Sarah Marlow-Rawles offers a warm, person-focused approach to therapy. She works in a way that centres the individual and their story, helping people make sense of stressful or painful experiences. Sarah is a BACP counsellor with 13 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She often supports people facing anxiety, depression, stress and burnout. Relationship concerns, parenting strain and self-esteem difficulties are common topics in her sessions. She also helps people dealing with grief, trauma and problems with intimacy or addiction.

How Sarah works

Sarah blends attachment-based thinking with client-centred and psychodynamic ideas. That means she pays attention to early relationship patterns, listens without judgement, and looks at how past experiences shape present feelings. She also uses solution-focused techniques to set practical, achievable steps when people want change quickly.

In sessions she aims for an open, calm atmosphere where the person leads the pace. Conversations explore current difficulties and the life story behind them. Sarah works with practical tools for coping alongside deeper reflection when that feels helpful.

Therapy can include talking, problem-solving and exercises between sessions. She can address specific issues such as body image, sleeping problems, addiction patterns, chronic illness-related stress and caring responsibilities. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then book sessions that fit their schedule. The process is straightforward and designed to get to the issues that matter most quickly.

Online support options

How attachment and solution-focused work online

Sarah combines attachment-based approaches with client-centred and solution-focused ideas to guide online work. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand their reactions to stress and close relationships. Client-centred work means the therapist follows the person’s pace, listens fully and helps them feel heard. Solution-focused techniques add a practical element by identifying small, concrete steps to try between sessions and tracking progress.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively to choose what fits the person’s needs and goals. Together they review what helps and adjust methods over time so sessions remain useful and relevant.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls give visual connection for deeper conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins and messaging allows paced reflection between sessions. These options offer flexibility to fit work, caring duties or health limitations while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
