About Sabrina
Sabrina Faulkner is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, and relationship concerns. Her practice also addresses parenting strains, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, ADHD and difficulties linked to identity and LGBT matters.
Sabrina describes a humanistic, client-centred way of working. She aims to listen first and adapt conversations to what matters to each person. Sessions involve talking through current problems, identifying patterns, and trying straightforward steps to make day-to-day life more manageable.
Her background includes a degree in psychology and a diploma in hypnotherapy, and she is registered as NCPS. She works in private practice and has also contributed time to volunteer roles. More recently she has published as an Amazon bestselling author and practices as a spiritual counsellor alongside her other work.
In therapy she uses a mix of approaches to suit the issue and the person. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when unhelpful thoughts or routines are getting in the way. Mindfulness-based ideas are introduced to help with sleep and ongoing stress. Hypnotherapy may be offered where it fits the client’s aims.
People who come for help are often looking for practical ways to reduce overwhelm at home and to improve communication with those closest to them. Sabrina aims to help clients clarify what they want and to find small, doable changes they can use between sessions.
How sessions work
Approaches used in online sessions and practical notes
Sabrina commonly uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in her sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so the person can make sense of their feelings and choices. It helps when someone needs straightforward space to talk and be heard. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and helps people try simple experiments to change unhelpful patterns.She may also draw on mindfulness techniques to reduce ongoing stress and improve sleep. These are short exercises and breathing-based practices that can be used between sessions. Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process - the therapist and client will discuss goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by avoiding travel, allowing a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or offering a quieter setting when that suits you. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical benefits to help therapy fit into a busy household.
