About Sarah

Sarah Howell is a UK-based therapist with five years of clinical experience working across charitable organisations and private practice. She draws on a blend of solution-focused work, client-centered principles, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to support people through a wide range of difficulties. Her work has included supporting clients affected by low mood, anxiety, relationship challenges, sexual abuse and other trauma, addictive behaviours, grief, and low self-esteem, among other concerns.

Sarah values each person as an individual and approaches therapy as a collaborative partnership. She aims to help clients identify their strengths, set achievable goals, and build practical strategies to meet those goals. Her style is practical and supportive, shaped by a belief that therapy works best when it is tailored to a person’s needs and lived experience.

She holds BACP accreditation - membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates adherence to a recognised professional framework in the UK. Sarah offers sessions by video, email, and instant messenger, providing flexible options for people seeking therapeutic support.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Sarah works from several evidence-informed approaches that can be used in online sessions. Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns - it helps when difficulties show up in intimacy, trust, or repeated relationship problems. Client-centered therapy places the client's experience at the centre of the work, offering empathic listening and support so people can find their own solutions and build self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and developing practical skills to manage anxiety, low mood, sleep and eating difficulties, and many daily stresses.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sarah collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts session focus as progress unfolds. This collaborative stance helps tailor therapy to the individual rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for many clients. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions can be more accessible when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide flexible, short-form support between appointments. These options increase accessibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while maintaining continuity of care.
