About Sarah
Sarah Johnson is an NCPS-registered counsellor and psychotherapist with six years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She has a BSc (Hons) in Therapeutic Counselling and a diploma in counselling children and adolescents. Sarah helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and parenting strain.
She has worked with people facing abuse, trauma, addiction, self-harm, eating concerns and grief. Her background includes supporting clients with relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, bipolar difficulties and problems with sleeping and eating. She also lists a wide range of additional focus areas such as attachment issues, blended family concerns and caregiver stress.
Sarah uses a mix of approaches in sessions. These include Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. She adapts conversations and practical tasks to suit what a person wants to address that week.
In a session she aims to keep language plain and practical. People can expect discussion of specific patterns, short exercises to try between sessions, and straightforward planning for next steps. Sessions are led by the client’s needs and pace rather than a fixed script.
Sessions are offered in English and Sarah accepts international clients. Fees vary with location and are billed through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, the service asks that readers complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
How Sarah uses therapy approaches online
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the client. It helps people who need a steady space to talk through relationship strain, parenting worries or low self-esteem without a directive agenda.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at current thinking and behaviour patterns and uses small practical exercises to change them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating difficulties and for managing stress with clear, step-by-step tasks.
Mindfulness Therapy adds simple attention and breathing practices to help reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices are often short and can be done between sessions to help with anger, worry and sleep problems.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk through what has worked before, what feels acceptable now, and agree together on tasks and goals. That means methods can shift over time as needs change.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the session formats offered before booking. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into busy days, allows quieter check-ins during a lunch break, or avoids travel time. A range of session lengths and rhythms can be discussed so therapy can fit with everyday life rather than create extra strain.
