Sarah Trent, BACP

Sarah Trent trained at the University of Warwick, earning a BA honours degree in counselling and psychotherapy, and works as a counsellor, psychotherapist, and health and wellbeing coach. She draws on her formal training and practical experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low motivation, low self-esteem, and lack of confidence. Sarah takes a person-centred approach, tailoring sessions to each person’s individual needs and priorities while encouraging clients to discover their own strengths and pathways to change.

Her practice is grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she aims to offer a nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult emotions and life challenges. In addition to her academic qualification, she holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects membership in a professional counselling body. Sarah emphasizes empowerment and practical support, helping people take the first courageous steps toward a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Person-Centred Care and Online Support

Sarah Trent offers person-centred therapy, which focuses on creating an accepting, empathetic space where clients explore their feelings and make choices that align with their values. This approach is helpful for issues such as low self-esteem, relationship concerns, and the emotional effects of trauma and abuse.

Alongside counselling, she uses health and wellbeing coaching techniques to support motivation, goal-setting, and practical steps toward change. These methods complement therapeutic work by helping clients build routines and small habits that support mental and emotional wellbeing.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Sarah works with clients to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they determine which techniques feel most useful. This ongoing collaboration helps tailor sessions so they remain relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for busy schedules and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend appointments from home, and choose the communication style that best suits a client's circumstances.
