Sarah Marlow-Rawles

Sarah Marlow-Rawles is a counsellor with a BACP registration and 13 years of experience in the UK. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious or stuck, and also supports those facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, grief and difficulties with anger.

She works from the view that each person knows their story best. Sessions aim to build on strengths and small skills that can make day-to-day life easier. Sarah encourages practical steps alongside reflection, so people can try things between meetings and report back on what helped.

Her background includes long-term psychotherapy approaches and time-limited methods. She draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. She also uses client-centred ways of listening and psychodynamic thinking to help uncover recurring themes that keep causing problems.

Sarah has supported people with trauma, addiction and complex family situations, including adoption and blended family issues. She also works with those coping with chronic pain or illness, body image concerns and caregiver stress. Work may address anger and control issues in practical, paced sessions.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person. People can expect straightforward language, small experiments to try between sessions, and a focus on clearer day-to-day coping. To begin, follow the site process to match and book according to available times.

How specific approaches translate to online counselling

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence present patterns and emotional responses. It can help when recurring trust, closeness or anger issues keep showing up in relationships. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and helping people find their own solutions; this approach is useful for building confidence and clearer self-understanding.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and they will try different ways of working if needed. Decisions about focus and pace are made together so the work feels relevant and achievable.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking as the biography does not specify them here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also allow people to use a quieter room, phone or device when that makes sense for them. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt exercises, grounding techniques and goal-setting to make online work practical and focused for everyday life.
