About Sarah
Sarah Greenwood is a counsellor with 17 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She is a BACP member, and she offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what is worrying them. She invites people who feel anxious, low, overwhelmed or disconnected to make contact and explore next steps.
Her approach blends person-centred care with practical strategies from cognitive behavioural work. That means sessions often begin by making sense of what is happening now, then trying out small, realistic changes. She pays attention to patterns that come from past relationships and attachment, and how these affect day-to-day feelings and choices.
Sarah has worked across public and private settings over the past 17 years. She continues with regular supervision and ongoing professional development. She is DBS checked and follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework.
In sessions she aims to be empathic and straightforward. Conversations focus on what matters to the person in front of her and on steps that feel doable between meetings. Practical tools may be offered alongside reflective discussion to help people manage stress, sleep difficulties, mood and coping during life changes.
People often leave having clarified priorities and with a plan to try differently. To begin, she asks people to describe their concerns and goals so sessions can be tailored to their situation and needs.
Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unwanted thoughts and feelings without being led by them, then choose actions that match their values. It is often used for anxiety, stress and when someone wants clearer direction in life.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical steps to reduce symptoms and change unhelpful patterns. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems and coping with life changes.
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of relating and managing emotion, and it can help when past patterns cause repeated difficulties in connections with others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what has helped before, then agree a way forward together. That collaborative process may mix approaches so the plan fits the person's needs.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm exact session options before booking as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find it helpful to keep continuity of care when life or work makes in-person meetings difficult.
