About Sarah
Sarah Henderson is a counsellor who uses a person-focused approach to help people make changes that matter. She holds NCPS and works from a straightforward, respectful style. Sessions are practical and paced to each person.
With four years of experience, Sarah concentrates on stress and anxiety, depression, self-esteem and motivation. She also supports people facing relationship concerns, issues related to LGBT identity, addictions, grief and trauma. She aims to tailor the conversation and the plan to the individual, rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.
Background and approach
Sarah draws on Client-Centred Therapy to build an accepting, non-judgemental atmosphere. She combines this with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different behaviours. That mix helps with sleep and eating problems, anger, and coping with life changes.
Additional focuses include attachment and abandonment issues, blended family concerns, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication problems, and gender dysphoria. She also works with people dealing with isolation, guilt, jealousy, and forgiveness. People who contact her can expect practical conversations about goals and small steps to try between sessions.
The emphasis is on regular, steady progress and on adjusting the plan if it is not working. Sarah invites people to take the first step and to shape therapy around what they want to change.
