About Sarah
Sarah Cree is a counsellor who creates a calm, compassionate space for people to feel heard. She introduces herself simply and listens closely so clients can name what matters to them and take practical steps forward. She has six years working in independent practice and a longer history supporting neurodivergent people.
That combination gives her sessions both clinical grounding and flexibility. She uses a mix of approaches to suit each person rather than a one-size-fits-all method.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and down to earth. Sarah draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy and mindfulness alongside person-centred principles. She also uses expressive tools such as writing and sandtray work when those methods feel helpful.
She offers focused help for anxiety, stress, sleep disruption and grief. Additional areas include relationship and intimacy issues, parenting concerns, identity exploration, ADHD and autism related challenges, and coping with life transitions and burnout. Sarah is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She works with people at different stages of life and adapts session pace and tools to each person's needs. The aim is clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and practical skills that fit everyday life.
How therapy approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and creating space for people to find their own answers. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clarity and a steady relationship to talk through their concerns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety and shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, adds skills for emotion regulation and tolerance of distress and can be useful for strong mood swings or high stress.The choice of approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has helped before, then try methods that suit the person. Plans are reviewed together so tools and pacing are adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions let people access therapy with greater flexibility. Video calls work well for full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break more easily. Live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for shorter check-ins, weekly homework support or when someone prefers typing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around busy lives and differing needs while keeping the focus on steady progress and practical skills.
