About Sarah
Sarah Guy is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of practical experience. She has completed professional training recognised by BACP and NCPS and has logged thousands of client hours. Sarah aims to offer straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief and life changes.
Sarah works in an integrative way and adapts sessions to each person's needs. She focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions and on building the strengths someone already has.
Background and approach
Her manner is warm and down to earth, and she seeks to create an easy environment for honest conversation. Her background includes work in hospice care and a cancer centre, which informs her knowledge of end-of-life, chronic illness and caregiver concerns. Sarah also has experience with relationship-related difficulties, blended family issues, attachment matters and separation.
This breadth helps when people bring complex, overlapping problems. She offers a calm space to talk about difficult experiences such as abuse, dissociation, domestic violence, guilt, shame or profound loneliness. Sarah supports people coping with bereavement and major life transitions, and she can help explore communication and codependency patterns.
In addition to independent practice work, Sarah supervises other counsellors to support their clinical practice. She sometimes works with a pet present on video calls, which can help some people feel more at ease. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

Online support
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before, then agree a plan together. That plan can change over time as needs shift, and the counsellor will check in regularly to make sure the way of working still fits.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy around work, appointments or caregiving duties. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good choice for shorter check-ins. Text and chat can help when someone prefers writing to speaking or wants ongoing brief contact. Video calls offer face-to-face conversation without travel, giving visual connection and the convenience of meeting from wherever works best for the client.
