About Sandra
Sandra Adams is a counsellor with 26 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people who are anxious, depressed, grieving, or facing major life changes. Sandra listens without judgement and aims to create a calm space where people can talk through difficult feelings and practical problems.
She works in a person-centred way, so sessions begin with the client’s priorities. Sandra blends that approach with cognitive behavioural techniques and solution-focused methods when they suit the situation.
Background and approach
This mix supports people dealing with stress, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy difficulties, and issues linked to addiction or trauma. Over more than two decades she has worked with a wide range of concerns, including domestic abuse, gambling harms, and sexual or relationship difficulties.
She has also run support activities for people affected by a loved one’s gambling, and she offers clinical supervision to other practitioners. Sandra holds BACP and NCPS credentials, which are recorded as BACP and NCPS. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients who can join remotely.
In practical terms Sandra uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. People can start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then book sessions that suit their schedule. Her approach is straightforward and focused on helping people make manageable changes.
How Sandra’s approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of sessions. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what they hear and encourages people to lead the conversation. This approach helps when someone needs space to make sense of difficult feelings and decide what matters most.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It uses simple practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and build coping strategies. CBT can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress when people want clear steps to try between sessions.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable change. Sessions focus on strengths and on what would look different if the problem was reduced. This method can help when someone wants a short-term, goal-oriented plan for a specific issue.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sandra will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, and together they will decide which methods to try and when to adjust them. That way the work stays relevant to real life and practical needs.
Online sessions let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls are good for full conversations when reading tone matters. Phone sessions can be lighter and require less bandwidth. Live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing helps express thoughts. These options make it easier to attend therapy from different locations and routines.
