Sherrine Barrowes, BACP

Sherrine Barrowes is a UK-licensed therapist with ten years of professional experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, family conflicts, and experiences of trauma and abuse. She works from the perspective that each person knows their own story best and brings strengths that can be used to navigate and overcome life’s challenges. Sherrine focuses on helping clients identify those strengths and build practical ways to move toward a more fulfilling and happier life.

Recognizing that taking the first step toward change requires courage, she offers steady, compassionate support throughout the therapeutic process. Sherrine holds the BACP credential, which indicates professional standing with a recognised counselling body in the United Kingdom. Her approach is collaborative and person-focused, aiming to create an environment where clients feel heard and empowered to set and reach their goals.

Whether addressing immediate concerns like anxiety or longer-standing patterns related to relationships and family, Sherrine helps clients explore options, develop coping strategies, and work toward meaningful change at a pace that suits them.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

Sherrine draws on several evidence-informed approaches and adapts them for remote work so clients can access support from wherever they are. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy - ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being driven by them, and then commit to actions aligned with personal values; it can be useful for anxiety, stress, and finding direction. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns formed in relationships and family life, helping clients understand how early connections affect current relationships and intimate concerns. Client-Centered Therapy offers a nonjudgmental, empathetic space where the client’s experience guides the pace and focus of therapy, supporting self-exploration and personal growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey. Sherrine works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy with Sherrine is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care, attend sessions from home or work, and choose the format that feels most helpful for the individual.
