About me and my therapy practice
My name is Sarah I am integrative humanistic counsellor. I work with adults and young people to help them become their best selves. I believe that everyone needs to be heard and that given the right conditions can learn to understand themselves better and become the person they are meant to be.
I can offer a safe space for you to explore your issues and begin your journey to the real you. I believe that everyone needs to be heard with empathy and without judgement. I believe that given that opportunity you will be able to see answers to your own issues and become the person you were meant to be.
I work with adults and young people with a range of issues including self-harm, suicide ideation, bereavement, young carers, isolation and self-esteem.
I am also deaf aware having worked in deaf education with deaf children and young people and their families.
Practice description
I currently work in an agency setting with young people in schools and offer counselling to deaf adults and young people with or considering a cochlear implant at an Auditory Implant Service.
I also have my private practice The Fold Counselling where I can see you in person or online.
I will give you the space to explore your own feelings using mainly a person centred approach, where you are central to the counselling and decide what areas you wish to talk about. I will also use other tools and techniques which may help you to access your own feelings.
My first session
I offer a free no obligation 15 minute phone call where we can decide if you would benefit from having some counselling sessions with me. I will explain my fees and how you can pay for sessions and when I would have a space for you and whether you are wanting to work in person or online.
Once you decide to proceed, the first session will be for me to find out more about you and the issues you would like to bring to the sessions. I would explain more about how we would work together and how I will ensure that you have a safe space, in which I will worth according the ethical principals of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. Then would jointly sign an agreement that will underpin our work.
