Sally Rhodes, BACP

Sally Rhodes began her journey into therapy after experiencing her own need to break repetitive patterns and create meaningful change. That personal experience sparked a determination to train so she could support other women facing similar struggles. She trained initially as a life coach, then in clinical hypnotherapy, and later qualified as a psychotherapist. Sally has spent the last 10 years working in private practice, helping women build the skills and insight needed to move forward.

Sally works in an integrative way, tailoring her approach to each person rather than relying on a single method. Her practice draws on psychotherapy and coaching tools including Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Person-Centred work, Solution-Focused techniques, Emotional Freedom Tapping (EFT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). She also incorporates life coaching strategies such as Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), holistic coaching, and SMART goal setting. This variety allows her to adapt interventions to the needs, strengths, and goals of each client.

Sally has substantial experience supporting people with anxiety, panic, stress, depression, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, suicidal thoughts, identity concerns, and relationship and intimacy difficulties. She also works with issues such as addiction, communication and commitment problems, attachment-related concerns, blended family dynamics, and caregiver stress. Sally is a BACP member - that is, she is affiliated with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - and she approaches therapy with a practical, compassionate focus on self-awareness, breaking cycles, and working toward meaningful change.

Approach-Focused Online Therapy with Flexible Access

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts or feelings arise. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and situations where a person wants to live more in line with what matters to them.

Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns that develop early in relationships and how those patterns affect current connections. It supports people working through abandonment, attachment issues, and relationship difficulties by building awareness and safer relational strategies.

Client-Centred Therapy centres on empathetic listening and creating a respectful therapeutic relationship so clients feel understood and able to explore their concerns. This approach is helpful for self-esteem, identity work, and processing emotional experiences.

Sally uses these approaches in a collaborative way, recognising that the right method often emerges through conversation and exploration. She works with each person to identify goals, preferences, and the approaches likely to be most helpful, adjusting the plan as needs evolve.

Online therapy with Sally is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access regular support, maintain continuity of care during life changes, and fit therapy into everyday routines while working with a licensed professional.
