About Sarah
Sarah Labbett is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She focuses on common difficulties such as stress, anxiety and relationship strain, and works with people facing trauma, grief, and problems with self-esteem. Sarah aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can talk honestly about what matters to them.
Her style is flexible and person-focused. Sessions are shaped around each person's needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.
Background and approach
Sarah draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and uses client-centred and solution-focused ideas to keep work grounded and goal-oriented. She also brings in mindfulness methods to help people manage strong feelings and build steady coping skills. Where useful, psychodynamic thinking is used to look at longer-standing patterns that affect current life and relationships.
Sarah says she will tailor conversations and plans to suit each person's situation. People contact her about a wide range of concerns including addiction, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, intimacy and sexual culture matters, career pressure and compassion fatigue. She has additional interest in attachment-related issues, abandonment and complex interpersonal patterns.
Sarah works in English and offers a mixture of session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. She asks people to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions according to the advertised process.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the client at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, follows the client's pace and helps people feel understood so they can talk through difficult feelings and make choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; it is often used for anxiety, stress and sleep or eating difficulties by teaching clear, practical exercises.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative step. The counsellor will discuss options, try different methods and adjust the way of working to match the client's goals and preferences. That may mean combining brief, solution-focused tasks with longer conversations about past patterns when helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face contact when visual cues help the work. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging provide a lighter option for regular check-ins or when writing thoughts feels easier. These formats make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around day-to-day life and to try different ways of working until the best fit is found.
