Trauma & EMDR Therapist · BACP accredited · checked 18 Jul 2026
“I help people whose past will not stay in the past.”
How I work
I specialise in helping people whose past will not stay in the past — flashbacks, hypervigilance, or a constant feeling of being unsafe. Trauma responses are normal responses; they can also change.
I use EMDR and trauma-focused CBT within a carefully paced relationship. We never move faster than feels safe, and stabilisation always comes before processing.

Counsellors here name at most 5, so this is where Sarah focuses.

What happens in a first session

Confidentiality
What you say stays between you, with the usual exceptions: risk of serious harm to you or someone else, or a legal requirement. Counsellors discuss their work in supervision without naming clients.
If something goes wrong
Tell your counsellor first if you can. You can also raise a concern with the platform, or complain directly to their professional register.

Check this registration on the BACP registerWhat we've verified
Checked 18 Jul 2026We check documents, not clinical practice. “Counsellor” and “psychotherapist” are not protected titles in the UK, so we verify membership of an accredited voluntary register (such as BACP, UKCP, NCPS, BABCP or BPC — or HCPC/BPS for psychologists) rather than a state licence. Badges are removed automatically if a registration lapses.
