About Sarah
Sarah Howell is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship strain. She also helps with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief and self-esteem concerns. Sarah uses a collaborative, person-focused style to help people spot strengths and set practical goals.
She brings five years of experience from charity work and private practice. That background means she has seen many different life situations and adapts her way of working to each person. Sessions focus on what matters to the client and on small steps that can be put into daily life.
Sarah practises Client-Centred Therapy alongside Solution-Focused work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, using ideas from these approaches to guide conversations and exercises. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through painful memories, examine patterns and try new ways of coping.
Her style is straightforward and respectful. She helps people identify unhelpful thoughts, try new behavioural experiments and build on existing strengths. The emphasis is on practical change rather than jargon.
Sessions are offered in English and are arranged through an online booking flow. Before starting, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary by location and the subscription model used, which can be cancelled at any time.
How her approaches work online
Sarah uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep conversations focused on what matters to the person. This approach means the counsellor listens closely, reflects feelings and helps clients find their own solutions. It can be helpful for people who need a calm, accepting space to talk things through.She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current patterns, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviours. Attachment work can help with relationship and intimacy issues, while CBT is often useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The counsellor will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques over a few sessions and adapting the plan as progress is made.
If you plan to use online sessions, check the currently supported options before booking. The biography lists video, email and instant messenger as available methods. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed and let people use quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options when appropriate.
