Sarah Slade, BACP

Sarah Slade is a United Kingdom based, licensed therapist with four years of professional experience and the credential BACP, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She combines practical therapeutic tools with a warm, respectful approach to help people navigate difficult life moments.

Sarah works with adults facing stress and anxiety, grief and loss, low self-esteem and confidence issues, work and career challenges, family concerns, and the emotional impact of major life changes. Her practice also supports those managing depression and looking to rebuild motivation and direction. She adapts each session to reflect the individual needs and goals of the person seeking support.

She draws on client-centered principles to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space and uses elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thought and behavior patterns when appropriate. Sarah emphasizes sensitivity and respect in every interaction and centers sessions around what matters most to the individual. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life is acknowledged as an act of courage, and Sarah offers steady, practical support throughout that process.

Client-Centered and CBT Support Delivered Online

Sarah uses client-centered therapy to place the person's experience at the heart of each session. This approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect, helping individuals explore their feelings, build self-esteem, and find their own solutions to life changes and relationship concerns.

She also integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical method that helps identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. CBT can be useful for managing anxiety, stress, low mood, and day-to-day coping strategies by teaching concrete skills and exercises to use between sessions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Sarah works collaboratively to determine what fits best based on each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She will discuss options, adapt techniques, and involve the client in decisions about their care.

Online sessions offer flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, access support from home, and maintain continuity of care when circumstances change, while working with licensed professionals and therapists who guide the process.
