About Sally
Sally worked in the corporate world before moving into counselling, and she draws on that background to understand work-related pressures. She uses an integrative style that looks at childhood and upbringing to make sense of present difficulties. That material is then linked to practical ways of coping day to day.
Sessions begin with the client’s agenda. Sally may encourage deeper reflection at times or offer a different viewpoint when helpful. She aims to build a trusted relationship so clients can talk openly about worries, panic, low mood, or intrusive thoughts.
Sally has three years of counselling experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has worked with issues such as ADHD that has not been diagnosed, grief, trauma, attachment concerns and parenting strain.
Her style is gentle and supportive, focused on helping people develop coping strategies and make clearer decisions about their lives. Practical suggestions and reflective conversation are mixed according to what each person needs.

How these approaches shape online counselling
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current feelings and reactions. It can help people who struggle with trust, abandonment worries or strong emotional responses in close relationships.Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person to find their own answers. The counsellor offers acceptance and empathy while the client steers the conversation and sets the pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sally will discuss which methods might fit a person's needs and goals and will adjust the mix as therapy progresses. This is a collaborative process that aims to match technique to what the client wants to change.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session options the counsellor currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a working day, avoid travel time and have shorter check-ins when needed. They also allow people to choose quieter surroundings or to use audio-only options if video is difficult. Confirming the exact formats on offer will help plan sessions that suit everyday life.
