Sarah Greenwood
Experienced BACP counsellor offering practical support
About Sarah
Sarah Greenwood draws on 17 years of practice to offer calm, practical therapeutic support. She introduces herself plainly and focuses on helping people make changes that matter. Sarah is a BACP counsellor and uses a mix of approaches to suit each person.
She aims for a warm, non-judgemental space where people can say what feels hard. Sarah begins by listening closely to each person's story. She blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to spot patterns and try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings and behaviour. Sessions are conversational and focused on what the client wants to change. Her background includes work across personal and public settings over many years.
Sarah keeps up professional development and regular supervision and follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework. She has experience supporting people through anxiety, depression and trauma, and also works with issues such as addictions, grief and career stress. Typical sessions involve exploring what matters most, testing practical strategies, and reflecting on progress between meetings.
Sarah pays attention to the small steps that build confidence. She uses short exercises, thought records, and values-based planning when these are helpful. If someone needs help with sleep, eating concerns, anger, or low self-esteem, Sarah can work through these alongside broader life changes.
She also supports people dealing with neurodiverse presentations and attachment difficulties. Her manner is steady, patient and goal-focused.

Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions aligned with those values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and life transitions because it focuses on practical steps rather than eliminating difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses simple exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, panic, insomnia and low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early relationship patterns shape current responses and can help when intimacy, trust or relationship patterns feel stuck.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or has not helped before, then try methods that fit the person's needs. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adapted as the work progresses.
Online therapy here is offered by registered or accredited professionals and uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for in-depth weekly sessions, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat allows shorter check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and busy lives while still working on meaningful change.
