About Sarah
Sarah Witt trained as a counsellor and holds BACP accreditation. She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. Sarah aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space so people can talk openly about what feels hard right now.
She starts by building a strong working relationship and listening closely to practical struggles. Sessions focus on what is happening in daily life and on small changes that can make life feel more manageable.
Background and approach
Sarah uses client-centred principles to help people recognise their own strengths and values. Where patterns from the past are relevant, she may use psychodynamic ideas to help surface unconscious feelings that influence current behaviour. Cognitive behavioural techniques are available too, to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new ways of thinking and acting.
These approaches are used together in a way that suits each person. Sarah commonly supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood and big life changes. She also helps with relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, body image and eating issues, grief, addictions and compassion fatigue.
Other focuses include attachment and abandonment concerns, communication and commitment issues, and challenges linked to gender and identity. Sessions are offered in English and Sarah sees people across the United Kingdom and internationally. She knows reaching out can feel difficult and aims to make the first steps straightforward and respectful.

Approaches Sarah lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviours, which can reduce anxiety and low mood over time.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss options and make decisions together based on the person’s goals and preferences. This collaborative process means the way therapy is used can change as needs evolve.
Online therapy makes these approaches more accessible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be used when connection is easier without video, and live chat or text-based messaging suits short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options offer flexibility to fit sessions around work, family commitments or daily routines and make regular appointments easier to keep.
