About Sarah
My approach is psychodynamic, based on an understanding that early experience and past relationships shape how we relate to ourselves and others in the present. I work with both the conscious and unconscious dimensions of experience - the thoughts, feelings and patterns of behaviour we are aware of, and those that sit beyond our awareness.
My practice is informed by a belief that everyone has the capacity for growth when they experience relationships that are collaborative, respectful and compassionate. My aim as a psychotherapist is to offer that kind of relational environment to my clients.
Before establishing my private practice, I gained clinical experience within the NHS and at WPF Therapy, and I have extensive experience in the homelessness and domestic abuse sectors. I have worked with clients across a wide diversity of age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation and religion.
I trained at WPF Therapy over five years, gaining a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice, validated by the University of Roehampton.
