About Sarah
Sarah Beardsley is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, grief, self-esteem difficulties, and the practical fallout of life changes such as relationship breakdown or shifts in work. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, eating issues, parenting challenges, career questions and ADHD-related concerns.
Her approach centres on client-centred therapy. Sessions focus on clear conversation and active listening so people can make sense of what matters to them. Sarah aims to create straightforward sessions where people can talk through practical problems and emotional reactions without jargon.
In practice she helps people unpack difficult events like loss or separation and look at how those events affect day-to-day decisions. She addresses attachment and abandonment issues, body image and guilt, and the stresses that come with caregiving, chronic illness or disability. She also works with communication problems and control issues that often appear after major changes.
Sarah draws on simple, relational methods to help people notice patterns and choose next steps. Sessions involve checking what’s most urgent, trying out small changes, and reflecting on how those changes felt. She encourages realistic, manageable steps rather than big promises.
To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Fees vary by location and sessions run on a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How client-centred work translates to online therapy
Client-centred therapy places the person’s perspective at the heart of sessions. It relies on careful listening, reflecting what the person says, and helping them identify their own priorities. This approach can help with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and decisions about work or relationships by making space to clarify values and next steps.Online sessions can use the same client-centred way of working. The therapist and client collaborate to find methods that suit the person’s goals and preferences. That might mean focusing on emotional processing in one block of time, then trying brief, practical actions between sessions and reviewing how those felt together.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a day, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins between meetings. Others use online meetings for longer conversations where notes and tasks can be shared visually. The therapist will work with the client to choose what fits their schedule, attention and practical needs rather than assuming a single way of working.
