Dr. Sarah Enderby

Dr Sarah Enderby helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anger, stress or anxiety. She supports those struggling with relationship and intimacy problems, grief, trauma and family issues. She also works with concerns such as low self-esteem, career difficulties, ADHD and challenges around sexual orientation and identity.

Sarah trained in counselling and holds a Doctorate and an MA. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Before becoming a counsellor she spent over 20 years working in the corporate world, where she studied what motivates people. That background shapes how she notices behaviour and patterns now.

Her style is warm and direct. Sessions focus on honest conversation and finding practical ways to change day-to-day patterns. She helps clients recognise early relationship patterns and how these echo into current problems. Conversations often look at attachment, internal parts of the self, and how past losses affect present choices.

Sarah draws on psychodynamic ideas alongside client-centred listening and Internal Family Systems work. She has experience working with couple issues from time spent with Relate and uses elements of the Gottman Method where relevant to relationship concerns. These tools are used to help people improve communication, manage strong emotions and rebuild trust with themselves.

People come to Sarah when they feel stuck or alone, or when life changes have left them unsure what to do next. She aims to create a straightforward, non-judgemental space where clients can make clearer decisions and practise new ways of relating.

Therapeutic approaches and online working

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shaped current ways of relating. It helps people who have trouble trusting others or who repeat painful relationship patterns. Client-Centred Therapy centres the conversation on the person's experience and priorities, offering non-judgemental listening to help people find their own solutions. Internal Family Systems invites gentle curiosity about different parts of the self, helping people who feel pulled between competing impulses or who struggle with shame and self-criticism.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options with each person and decide together what to try first based on goals and preferences. This collaborative process means methods can be adapted as therapy unfolds.

If you are considering online therapy, check the current session formats with the therapist before booking. Confirmed formats will determine practical benefits, but online work can make attending sessions easier to fit around daily life. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to keep therapy going during busy weeks. Registered or accredited professionals can help shape sessions so they fit your routine and aims.
