About Sally
Sally Rhodes is a counsellor with ten years of practice helping people manage stress, anxiety and relationship concerns. She works with individuals who are dealing with trauma, low self-esteem, addictions and depression. Sally writes plainly and focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions.
Her background began with personal experience of therapy, which inspired a career change. Over a decade she has worked in independent practice supporting people through life changes and painful events.
Background and approach
She uses an integrative style and draws on a range of psychotherapy approaches to suit each person's needs. In sessions she listens without judgement and helps people notice patterns that keep repeating. She offers straightforward tools for coping with panic, reducing stress and improving communication.
Sally encourages small, manageable changes and supports clients as they test them out. She also helps people address intimacy-related worries, attachment issues and body image concerns. When trauma or abuse is present she works at a pace the client can manage and focuses on safety and stabilising skills first.
Sally is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and practises in the United Kingdom. She provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging for therapy sessions.
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting driven by them and then focus on actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and low mood when avoiding thoughts has become limiting.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current ways of connecting with others. It helps people understand patterns in close relationships and build more supported ways of relating when intimacy or abandonment worries are present.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try out approaches that fit those goals and adjust plans over time. Clients are invited to give feedback so therapy matches their needs and preferences.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video works well for full conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a lunch break. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins, writing things out, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options help people fit therapy around work, family life and day-to-day commitments.
