About Sarah
Sarah Showler is a counsellor with eight years of professional experience. She supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and depression. Sarah aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
Sarah creates a calm space where clients can talk about difficult feelings without judgement. She listens for patterns in thoughts and behaviour and helps people spot small changes that can make daily life easier.
How Sarah works
Sessions focus on practical steps as well as understanding the root of problems. Her work covers a broad range of concerns, including coping with major life changes and issues linked to attachment, abandonment and communication. Sarah also helps people dealing with body image, eating-related difficulties, codependency and problems around commitment or control.
She is experienced with mood and dissociative symptoms and supported presentations such as Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder. Sarah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person. Conversations are paced to match what the client needs that week.
The aim is to leave people with clearer choices and simple tools they can use between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and Sarah accepts international clients. She works flexibly with online formats so people can fit counselling into busy lives.
If someone is ready to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions to suit their timetable.

Online support options
Approaches that suit online therapy
Brief descriptions of common evidence-based techniques help explain what to expect. One approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and learning ways to reframe them to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps people notice automatic thoughts and practise different responses in daily life. Another approach emphasises practical strategies and small behavioural changes to break cycles of avoidance and improve mood and motivation. It often involves setting manageable goals and reviewing progress each week.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client's goals and situation. That collaborative process means techniques are adapted over time as needs change and progress is reviewed regularly.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel time. Phone sessions can be a good option when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging suits shorter check-ins, written reflection or when people prefer not to be on camera. These formats make it easier to fit counselling around work, family commitments and travel, while keeping continuity between appointments.
