About Sabrina

Sabrina Faulkner is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, anger and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with grief, identity concerns, sleep problems and life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely to each person who comes to her.

Sabrina trained in psychology and holds a diploma in hypnotherapy. Her listed credential is NCPS, which she uses alongside her private practice work. She also does volunteer work and has published as an Amazon bestselling author.

Her style is humanistic and client-centred. She aims to hold space and respond with respect and compassion. Conversations and any treatment plans are shaped around what each person needs most in the moment.

Sabrina combines different approaches depending on the issue. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas, mindfulness practices, existential questions and hypnotherapy techniques when these match a client's goals. She explains options and helps people choose what feels most useful.

Sessions are adaptable to a person's situation and priorities. People can expect practical strategies for managing difficult feelings, alongside space to process loss, identity questions or relationship conflicts. Sabrina emphasises clear, down-to-earth language and steady support throughout the work.

Approaches you might use in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. The counsellor offers empathy and support while the person leads the pace and topics, which can help with issues like low self-esteem, grief and relationship worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. It uses practical exercises and step-by-step techniques to reduce anxiety, manage anger and improve sleep habits.

Hypnotherapy uses guided attention and relaxation to access thoughts and habits that feel hard to change. It can be offered alongside talking therapy to target symptoms such as stress, sleep disturbance or habit patterns.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels comfortable, then suggest options. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as needs shift.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the profile does not list them specifically. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work days, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to use quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera if preferred, or choose a simpler audio-only conversation when that suits their day.
