About Sarah
Sarah Trent is a BACP counsellor with six years' experience based in the United Kingdom. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem. Her profile also notes work with guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, and social anxiety and phobia.
She trained at the University of Warwick with a BA (Hons) in counselling and psychotherapy. In practice she combines counselling, psychotherapy and health and wellbeing coaching to suit each person’s situation. Sessions focus on talking through what feels most pressing and finding practical ways to manage day-to-day pressures.
Sarah uses a person-centred way of working that keeps the conversation focused on the client’s experience and priorities. That approach prioritises the client’s concerns and pace rather than a fixed step-by-step plan. Over time she supports people to build confidence, notice unhelpful patterns, and try different ways of responding to difficult situations.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, reflective listening, and collaborative goal-setting. The emphasis is on clear, practical steps they can try between meetings. Work often covers coping strategies for anxiety, ways to repair or improve close relationships, and making sense of past hurt.
Her background in health and wellbeing coaching means she also looks at motivation and practical habits alongside talking therapy. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and practical details on the booking page.
How her methods translate to online work
Sarah describes her work as person-centred, which means sessions focus on the client's experience and priorities rather than a set protocol. Online, this looks like talking through what matters most and shaping each meeting around the client's pace and goals. This approach suits people who need time to find the right way of speaking about difficult feelings.She also brings elements of health and wellbeing coaching into sessions. That involves breaking larger goals into small, practical steps and checking progress between meetings. Coaching tools are useful for building daily routines, motivation, and small behaviour changes that support mental wellbeing.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options during early meetings and agree which methods to try based on the client's needs and preferences. That collaborative decision-making helps match techniques to problems such as social anxiety, stress, or relationship strain.
The biography does not list specific online formats, so check the booking page to confirm how sessions are held before you book. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into workdays, require less travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If someone prefers a different way of working, this can be discussed at first contact.
