About Sarah
Sarah Greenwood is a counsellor with 17 years' experience in the United Kingdom. She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Sarah offers a calm, approachable presence for people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or low in mood and who want practical ways to feel better.
Sarah draws on several well-known counselling methods to suit each person. She uses cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try different actions.
Background and approach
Person-centred work is used to make people feel heard and accepted while exploring what matters to them. Her practice covers a wide range of everyday difficulties. These include stress, anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, grief, relationship and intimacy questions, parenting strain, career worries and issues linked to trauma.
Sarah also supports people dealing with addiction, ADHD, long-term health concerns and identity-related topics such as LGBT matters. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Sarah aims to help people notice small changes that add up over time.
She offers tools and exercises to practise between meetings so progress can continue outside sessions. Sarah has worked in both public and personal settings and keeps up regular supervision and professional development through the BACP framework. She speaks English and sees clients in the UK.
Online formats are available for those who prefer video, phone or text-based options.
Approaches that suit online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values rather than getting stuck on every worry. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behaviour that keep problems going and then testing small practical changes. It often helps with anxiety, panic, sleep issues and low mood.
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasises how early relationships shape current connections and emotional reactions. It can support people working on relationship difficulties, intimacy concerns and attachment-related patterns.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options in the first sessions and collaborate on what feels most helpful. Goals, preferences and day-to-day demands guide which methods are tried and adapted over time.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging brings practical flexibility. Video is useful when face-to-face cues matter, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat or messaging can suit short check-ins, written reflection or times when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to maintain continuity of care around busy lives and varied schedules.
