About me
I am an experienced psychotherapist with a broad experience of working with adults & children in community and inpatient mental health, NHS, workplace counselling, perinatal, education, private practice, and community group work.
I am a creative and compassionate therapist and have worked in the mental health professions since 2009. Human Givens has brought a highly effective organising idea to the knowledge and experience I have gathered over the years.
My mission is to support clients in using their innate resources to find an improved life balance and sense of overall wellbeing, sensitively processing trauma where needed and teaching skills to help people to build resilience, cope with stressors, and to get their essential emotional needs met.
I am currently working full-time in the NHS with clients who have experienced trauma, and am unable to take private clients at this time.
I hold the Human Givens Higher Diploma, and an MA in Art Psychotherapy.
I have an Enhanced DBS certificate for both adults and children.

Testimonials
"I can't thank you enough for all your care and patience over the last year. I am so grateful. You have made such a difference in my life - when I came to you I was in such a bad place, but you have helped me face past traumas and brought healing to some of these wounds, as well as giving me the skills to get through life's difficult moments which crop up every day. Thanks for patiently listening, and for believing in me. I know now that the future is something I'll be able to handle and I don't need to be afraid of it, nor do I need to constantly punish myself."
"I honestly don't know where I'd be without you. Coming to see you has been a much-needed lifeline... you are the only person in the service who sees me as a person, not a disorder. You honestly don't know how much you've done for me. You are by FAR the best therapist (and God knows I've seen a lot)… I honestly don't know how to say a 'thank you' big enough."
"Sara has been very professional and effective with helping me to recover and manage my condition. The best therapist I have ever been treated by, thank you from the bottom of my happy little heart."
"Thank you so much for everything you have done for me over the last six months... I'll appreciate it more than you'll ever know. I'll forever be grateful for the time & dedication you've spent on me. Thank you for never giving up & believing in me when I didn't believe in myself."
"Sara was very kind and accepting and understood my problems. This really helped me. I had had treatment in the past that had not been that effective so she looked at different ways to approach my needs."
