About Sarah

Sarah Showler is a counsellor with NCPS accreditation and eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationships, low self-esteem and depression. Sarah aims to make the first step into therapy feel manageable and encouraging for people who are unsure where to begin.

Sarah keeps sessions straightforward and down to earth. She helps people name what is worrying them and work out small, practical steps to feel steadier.

Background and approach

Conversations are calm and direct, with an emphasis on understanding how day-to-day habits and thoughts affect mood and relationships. In her work she pays attention to attachment patterns and how early experiences shape expectations in relationships. She also supports people dealing with feelings linked to abandonment, codependency and commitment.

For someone struggling with body image or eating and food-related issues she offers a space to talk without pressure and to build coping strategies. Sarah has experience supporting people through life transitions and ageing concerns, and with challenges such as avoidant or dependent personality patterns, dissociation and disruptive mood dysregulation disorder.

She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Sessions can be arranged by following the platform steps to match with her and schedule a time. She works in English and accepts international clients, offering a mix of session formats to suit different schedules and preferences.

Approaches you can expect in online sessions

Sarah works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavioural experiments to shift feelings and reactions. This method is useful for anxiety, low mood and stress because it links thinking, actions and mood in straightforward ways.

Another focus is on attachment and relational patterns. This work looks at how past relationships shape current expectations and communication, and it helps people build clearer boundaries and improve how they relate to others. That approach is helpful for communication problems, codependency and commitment concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which techniques fit the client's needs, goals and preferences. Sessions are collaborative, with regular check-ins to see what is helping and what should change.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow a longer, face-to-face style conversation. Phone sessions can be used when bandwidth is limited or a quieter audio check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter updates, more frequent check-ins or when writing helps organise thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family commitments and different time zones.
