About Sarah

Sarah Witt is a counsellor who blends different approaches to suit each person she meets. She has a BACP credential and four years' experience. Sarah aims to create an empathic, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them.

She often draws on Person-Centred therapy skills to build trust and help clients find their own value. That means listening closely and following the pace a person needs rather than imposing a fixed plan. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at feelings that may come from earlier life experiences.

When helpful, Sarah introduces cognitive behavioural techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. These are practical tools people can try between sessions to cope better with stress and low mood. She works collaboratively, discussing options and deciding together what to try next.

Sarah supports people facing a wide range of issues including stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief and coping with life changes. Her practice also covers eating and food-related issues, addictions, gender dysphoria and career-related worries. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns where these affect how someone relates to others.

Clients can expect straightforward language and a calm approach. Sarah reminds people that reaching out is a brave step and that she will work at a pace that feels manageable for them.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following the client's pace to build trust and self-awareness. It helps people who need a steady, supportive space to talk through work and life stresses.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to try between sessions. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress where people want clear tools to cope.

Psychodynamic work involves noticing patterns that come from earlier relationships and exploring how these affect current feelings and choices. It can be useful when people want to understand recurring problems or deeper emotional reactions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Sarah will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and together they will choose what to try and how to adapt it to online work. This collaborative planning helps make sure sessions fit each person's needs.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around work and family commitments and avoiding travel time for appointments. Online sessions can also make it easier to have shorter check-ins or to choose formats that suit energy levels and bandwidth. Confirm the available session formats before booking so arrangements match your day-to-day life.
