About Sarah
BACP. BA honours in counselling and psychotherapy from the University of Warwick. Six years' experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Sarah Trent works as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach. She uses person-centred counselling and practical conversation to help people who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
Sarah helps people talk through trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, guilt and shame, and social anxiety. She also supports people facing isolation, questions about life purpose and phobias that affect social situations. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and on building clearer choices and steps forward.
Her approach is person-centred, which means sessions centre on the person's experience and priorities. Sarah draws on therapeutic conversation and coaching techniques to encourage self-reflection and practical action. She aims for straightforward, respectful dialogue rather than complex theory.
Over six years she has worked with a range of difficulties commonly linked to mood and stress. People meet to talk about triggers, coping strategies and everyday routines that can be adjusted. Sessions may include listening, reflective feedback and setting small, achievable goals.
Sarah works in English and practises in the United Kingdom. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, select the See online counselling options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.
How Sarah applies therapeutic approaches online
Sarah uses person-centred counselling as her main approach, focusing on the person’s own perspective and priorities. This means sessions are driven by what the client brings and by building understanding through listening and reflective feedback.She also uses practical coaching techniques alongside counselling to identify small, manageable steps. These techniques help with motivation, planning and trying out new coping strategies between sessions. For trauma and abuse work she focuses on stabilisation, grounding and developing everyday routines that reduce distress rather than exposure or diagnostic procedures.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss different ways of working and agree what fits the client’s needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and adjustments can be made as therapy proceeds.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. The main practical benefit of working remotely is fitting counselling into a daily routine and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to attend during a lunch break, in quieter moments at home or when less visual focus is needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer the same kinds of supportive conversation and practical planning as in-person work, while helping people apply changes in their everyday life.
