About Sarah

Sarah Mayberry works with stress, anxiety, relationships, family concerns, self-esteem and low mood, using an integrative approach that draws on Person-Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic ideas. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has 18 years of experience.

Sarah sees adults and teenagers and focuses on practical ways to notice and change unhelpful patterns. Sessions look at day-to-day thoughts and behaviours with CBT, how current difficulties are experienced in relationships with Person-Centred ways of working, and how earlier life events might still affect feelings and choices using psychodynamic ideas.

Her style is collaborative. She spends early sessions working out what a person wants to achieve and which methods will help most. Conversations are paced to suit the individual and may include straightforward exercises or reflective discussion.

You can expect appointments to be arranged to fit around work and family commitments, with options at daytime, evenings and weekends. The service is provided online and uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; cost varies with location.

To begin, select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Sarah uses Person-Centred practice to focus on what the client wants to talk about and to make space for their own perspective; this helps when relationships or self-esteem are involved. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is used to notice and change everyday thoughts and behaviours that contribute to anxiety or low mood. Psychodynamic ideas look at how early experiences may still affect feelings and choices in the present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss how these methods might help and will agree a plan with the client based on their needs, goals and preferences. The choice of techniques is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

The service is provided online and appointments are offered at daytime, evenings and weekends to fit around other commitments. The biography does not specify all session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed.
