About Sarah

Sarah Boston is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience and a BACP credential. They aim to create a respectful and compassionate space where people can talk about what feels difficult. Sarah writes short, clear plans together with each person so sessions feel practical and focused.

Sarah helps people who are dealing with stress and anxiety, and those facing grief or depression. They offer support around trauma and abuse and provide an informed perspective on LGBT and sexuality concerns. There is also experience addressing issues that arise during cancer care and hospice or end-of-life planning.

In sessions Sarah listens closely and follows a client-centred approach, putting the person’s experience at the heart of the work. Conversations are shaped around each person’s needs, with simple goals and steps agreed together. The emphasis is on understanding what matters most right now.

Sarah keeps language plain and direct during meetings. Practical coping ideas are offered when useful, alongside space to reflect and make sense of hard feelings. The tone is warm and non-judgemental, and plans are adjusted as progress is made.

To begin, someone selects Start Therapy and completes a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions based on the therapist’s availability and the subscription model used for payment.

How Client-Centred Work Fits with Online Therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's experience. The counsellor reflects what someone says and follows their lead, helping them find clarity and decide what matters next. This approach suits people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and personal identity concerns because it makes the sessions about the person's priorities rather than a fixed agenda.

For trauma, abuse, or end-of-life issues the emphasis is on creating a steady, respectful dialogue. The counsellor offers space to talk at a pace that feels manageable and helps people notice small changes over time. Practical coping ideas can be introduced when the person is ready, along with joint planning about next steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will collaborate with the person to decide how to proceed, adapting the style and pace to their needs, goals and preferences. That might mean more reflective listening at the start and practical coping strategies later on.
