Sandra Henderson, BACP

Sandra Henderson is a licensed therapist based in the United Kingdom with 16 years of clinical experience supporting people through a wide range of life challenges. She holds BACP, which means membership in the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and reflects her commitment to recognized professional standards. Sandra has worked with clients facing stress and anxiety, addiction, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and other concerns such as trauma, family problems, and coping with life changes.

Her practice is grounded in the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and brings strengths that can be built on in therapy. Sandra creates a warm, non-judgmental space where clients and therapist collaborate to explore experiences, identify patterns, and develop practical strategies to support wellbeing. She draws on evidence-informed approaches and adapts her style to meet the needs of individuals and families navigating transitions, loss, or relational strain.

Taking the first step toward therapy can require courage, and Sandra aims to make that step feel manageable and respectful. She works collaboratively with clients to set goals, pace the work appropriately, and focus on meaningful change that fits each personâs life and values.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Sandra commonly draws on attachment-based therapy, client-centered therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy to guide her work. Attachment-based therapy looks at patterns formed in close relationships and how early bonds influence current reactions, which can be helpful for issues like intimacy worries, abandonment concerns, and family difficulties. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting, empathetic relationship in which the clientâs own goals and resources are central, supporting people facing anxiety, grief, or life transitions. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and it is often used for stress, anxiety, and depression.

Sandra treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will work together with each client to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and tailor methods so therapy feels relevant and manageable. The aim is to choose or combine approaches that best support progress over time.

Online therapy with Sandra is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent therapeutic support from wherever clients are located, helping maintain momentum between sessions and adapt therapy to everyday life.
