About Sarah Johnson

Sarah Johnson is a dedicated counsellor and psychotherapist with six years of professional experience supporting people through a wide range of mental health and life challenges. She holds a BSc Hons in Therapeutic Counselling and a diploma in counselling children and adolescents, and she carries the NCPS credential which indicates her professional standing in the field. Her practice spans work with young people from about age 11 through to older adults, addressing concerns such as low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and grief as well as complex issues like trauma, abusive relationships, addictions, eating difficulties and self-harm.

Sarah trained as a therapist inspired by her own life experience, and she brings a warm, empathic and non-judgmental approach to her work. She combines practical therapeutic methods with careful listening to help people make sense of their situations and build coping skills. Her experience includes supporting clients with anger, relationship and family difficulties, ADHD and bipolar challenges, intimacy and sexual wellbeing, and the stresses of parenting, career change and chronic health concerns.

In sessions she aims to create a respectful, safe and personal space where individuals can explore what is troubling them at their own pace. Using evidence-informed approaches such as cognitive behavioural and person-centred methods alongside mindfulness and solution-focused techniques, she works to help people identify realistic steps toward change and to strengthen their confidence and resilience. Sarah accepts new clients, including international clients, and offers several remote ways to work together.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Sarah offers online therapy that draws on client-centred, cognitive behavioural and mindfulness approaches to meet different needs. Client-centred therapy focuses on the person s own experience and priorities, creating space for the client to lead the pace and focus of sessions while the therapist provides empathy and understanding - this approach can help with self-esteem, relationship concerns and life transitions. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) works with thoughts, feelings and behaviours to identify patterns that contribute to problems and to develop practical strategies for change - it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and calming practices that can reduce reactivity and improve emotional regulation, which suits people coping with anxiety, rumination or chronic stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sarah works collaboratively with clients to explore what feels most helpful, taking into account each person s goals, preferences and life circumstances, and she can adapt methods over time or consult with other registered professionals when appropriate.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and accessibility needs. This range of options makes it easier for people who are balancing work, family or mobility limitations, or who live far from in-person services, to access consistent therapeutic support.
