About Sarah
Sarah Rose Gibson welcomes people who are anxious, stressed, or struggling with low self-esteem or low mood. She is a counsellor who aims to make first steps feel manageable. Her tone is warm and direct, and she explains therapy choices clearly so people know what to expect.
Sarah holds a qualification through the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). She also completed a level 4 diploma through Key Counselling. She has three years of experience working with adults in charity and personal settings across the United Kingdom.
Background and approach
In sessions she focuses on you as a whole person rather than on a single symptom. She encourages creative thinking and values individuality and diversity. Her style is empathetic and straightforward, with an emphasis on understanding how past experiences link to current struggles.
Sarah works with a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, self-esteem and depression. She also supports people dealing with attachment and abandonment worries, body image, caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, communication and control issues, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, and money worries.
When she uses ideas from the therapeutic models she was trained in, she explains them in plain language. Enquiries are met with warmth and respect, and she aims to work openly and honestly with each person to agree helpful next steps.

How Sarah works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sarah treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful. She explains each model she uses and checks in so the approach fits the person rather than forcing a method.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy life, such as shorter check-ins during a work break or avoiding travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep continuity of care when circumstances change, and it allows sessions to be scheduled around day-to-day commitments rather than adding long journeys.
