About Sarah
Sarah Henderson is an NCPS counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and LGBT concerns, and she also supports those dealing with relationship and self-esteem problems.
Sarah uses straightforward conversation to help clients set goals and make practical changes. She blends client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of coping.
She commonly helps with life transitions that feel overwhelming, such as career changes, starting or leaving relationships, and adjusting after losses. She also offers support for sleep and eating concerns, addictive behaviours, and managing anger and stress.
Sarah has additional experience with attachment and abandonment issues, blended family and family problems, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She works with people navigating gender dysphoria and other LGBT issues, including questions about intimacy and identity.
Her sessions focus on clear communication and practical steps. Clients can expect respectful listening, collaborative goal-setting, and tools drawn from client-centred and cognitive behavioural approaches. To begin, readers are asked to use the site’s matching process and schedule a first session.
How Sarah applies therapeutic approaches online
Sarah works from client-centred principles, which focus on listening and responding to each person’s experience. This approach values the person’s views and aims to build understanding before trying new strategies.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. CBT offers practical exercises and small experiments that can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful habits.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss goals, preferences and what feels useful, and then plan sessions together. That collaborative process helps decide whether more listening, CBT tools, or a mixture will be most helpful.
