About
Sarah Smith is a qualified and registered counsellor with the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). She brings a varied background in social care - including experience with learning disabilities, community care and older adults - and has focused her work on empowerment and independent choice throughout her career.
Since 2018 Sarah has worked exclusively in mental health, with roles in a private trauma clinic and within the NHS from 2019. Her practice is trauma-informed and person-centred, reflecting a commitment to treating each person with respect and recognising that people are the experts in their own lives.
Sarah places strong value on connection in the therapeutic relationship and makes time to understand the real impact of a person’s experiences, rather than what outside expectations might suggest they should feel. She supports clients at their own pace, exploring difficulties and helping them to identify solutions that fit their situation.
Her clinical experience includes supporting people with depression and anxiety, self-esteem and identity concerns, stress and burnout, grief and loss, trauma, and life transitions. Sarah believes clients have strengths that can help them face challenges, and she aims to empower and support those taking steps toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?
Many people question whether online therapy can have a real impact. For a range of common concerns - such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been shown to be as effective as traditional in-person work for most people.
A key benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the way that suits them best, choosing between video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That flexibility makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to maintain continuity of care when schedules or circumstances change.
Therapists offering online support are licensed professionals, and it is possible to change therapists if a different fit is needed. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, effective way to access support for common mental health and wellbeing concerns.
