About Sarah-Jane

Sarah-Jane McCall works with people who are dealing with trauma, addiction, grief, parenting strain and anxiety. She offers a calm, non-judgemental approach and focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sarah-Jane aims to make the first contact straightforward for someone who is worried or unsure about therapy.

Sarah-Jane has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration, which is shown as BACP.

Background and approach

Her background includes supporting people through abuse, neglect and loss as well as helping with emotional difficulties such as depression, bipolar mood issues and anger. She also provides therapeutic parenting support and helps people handle family problems and blended family challenges.

Her work often addresses addiction and drug or alcohol related concerns alongside co-occurring issues such as chronic illness, caregiving strain and compassion fatigue. She also offers support for life transitions, career stress and questions of self-esteem. Additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, autism and end-of-life matters.

In sessions she tailors conversations and any plan to the person in front of her. That may include looking at life stories, how relationships affect feelings, and the impact of past trauma. She aims to help people build coping strategies that fit everyday life rather than offering one-size-fits-all solutions.

Sarah-Jane describes therapy as a partnership. She supports people to recognise their strengths and to take small, manageable steps towards change. Practical goals and clear next steps are part of the work she offers.

Approaches that suit remote therapy and practical needs

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current reactions and close connections. In practice it helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others and learn new ways of feeling safer in relationships.

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the conversation. The counsellor follows the person’s pace, reflects what is said and helps build self-understanding and confidence to make changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss choices and try different ways of working based on your needs, goals and preferences. That lets the two of you decide together what feels most helpful as the sessions progress.

Online therapy gives practical options for fitting support into a busy life. Video calls let you read facial cues and hold longer sessions, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit a quick check-in, while live chat or text-based messaging can be useful for shorter exchanges and ongoing support between calls. These formats make it easier to keep continuity of care and to choose what works best for your routine.
