About Sarah

Counsellor, member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), three years' experience. Sarah Cattermole works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, career concerns, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, coping with life changes, and coaching. She combines client-centred ways of working with cognitive behavioural techniques to help people notice patterns and try practical changes.

Sarah keeps sessions straightforward. She listens first and then helps people make small, practical steps. That can mean looking at thoughts, trying behavioural experiments, or using person-centred reflection to clarify what matters to someone. Sessions are aimed at tackling the immediate problem and building simple strategies for day-to-day life.

She trained in psychology and health psychology before qualifying as a counsellor. Sarah has a 2:1 degree in Psychology from the University of Liverpool and an MSc in Health Psychology from Liverpool John Moores University. She also holds CPCAB Level 4 and 5 counselling qualifications and is a member of the BACP.

Her stated approach mixes client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), with mindfulness techniques incorporated at times. That combination is used to help people manage mood, reduce anxiety, process loss, and build confidence in choices around work and relationships.

Sessions are offered in English and Sarah accepts international clients. The site uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary by location. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.

How client-centred work and CBT translate online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. The counsellor offers understanding and space to talk so a person can clarify feelings and make choices. This approach helps when someone needs to make sense of loss, relationship problems, or low self-esteem.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to test new ways of acting and thinking. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, stress and low mood and can produce concrete day-to-day changes.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful. Together they agree on techniques to try and review progress as sessions continue.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce the need to travel, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions without being on camera or with adjustments for lower bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals on the site can explain practical scheduling and format choices when you complete the matching questionnaire and book a first session.
