About Sarah
Sarah Trent works in a person-centred way to help people feel heard and understood. She focuses on practical, respectful conversations that put the client’s needs first. Sarah aims to create a calm space where people can begin to untangle difficult thoughts and feelings.
She has six years' experience as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach. Sarah studied at the University of Warwick and holds a BACP credential, which she uses to guide her practice.
Background and approach
Her background includes helping people manage stress, anxiety and depression. Sarah also supports people dealing with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and problems with motivation and confidence. She pays attention to issues such as guilt, shame, isolation, loneliness, life purpose and social anxiety.
Conversations focus on what matters most to the person in front of her. In sessions she follows person-centred principles, which means she listens closely and follows the client’s lead. The work often involves naming feelings, spotting patterns and trying small, realistic changes between sessions.
Sarah encourages clients to set manageable goals and to notice any shifts in everyday life. Her approach is straightforward and warm. People who prefer a calm, compassionate listener and practical steps to move forward may find her style helpful.
The first step is usually a short matching process and then arranging a format that fits the person’s routine.

What Sarah works with
Everything Sarah lists, in their own terms.
Online support
Where it fits, evidence-based techniques can be used to help manage stress and social anxiety. These techniques often involve learning practical skills to recognise unhelpful patterns and try behaviour changes between sessions. They are aimed at easing day-to-day problems and building confidence in handling difficult situations.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That conversation helps shape the focus of sessions and the practical steps taken between meetings.
Online therapy offers a range of ways to connect: video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people talk face to face, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments, and allow people to choose the format that feels most comfortable.
