About Sarah
Sarah Alexander is a counsellor with 13 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family issues, trauma and abuse, and depression. She aims to make the first step into therapy easier and acknowledges the courage it can take to begin.
In sessions Sarah creates a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what is worrying them.
Background and approach
She invites straightforward conversation about feelings and practical problems. That approach helps people find clearer ways to cope day to day. Sarah draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques adapted to each person.
She works with people to set simple goals and try small, manageable steps between meetings. This can include looking at patterns of thought, developing coping strategies, and practising new ways of responding to stress. Her work also covers a range of specific concerns such as abandonment, blended family tensions, divorce and separation, domestic violence, addiction, guilt and shame, infidelity and loneliness.
Seasonal Affective Disorder, midlife questions, money worries and process addictions are other areas she supports people with. Sessions are carried out in English and Sarah is available to work with international clients. She uses practical communication to help people make progress, and focuses on approaches that fit each person's life and needs.
Approaches that suit online therapy
Sarah uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety and stress. One common approach she draws on looks at patterns of thought and behaviour to reduce overwhelming worry and low mood. This method helps people notice unhelpful thinking and practise alternatives in day-to-day life.She also uses practical coping skills that focus on stress reduction and stabilising routines. These techniques are useful for managing seasonal dips, addictive behaviours, and strong emotional reactions. Together these approaches aim to build small, useful changes that fit into a person’s life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree a plan based on the person’s concerns, goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps find methods that feel realistic and helpful.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual contact, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when typing feels easier. These options offer flexibility and can help maintain continuity of care despite travel or time pressures.
