About Sarah

Sarah Cree is a counsellor with six years in private practice. She aims to create a calm, compassionate space where people feel seen and heard. Sarah uses straightforward conversation and practical tools to help with daily struggles and major life changes.

She blends approaches so sessions fit the person in front of her. That can mean talking through thoughts and behaviours, practising grounding and breathing, or working on step-by-step changes. Sarah also uses creative methods such as writing and sandtray work when that helps someone express things words do not capture.

Her background includes extensive work supporting neurodivergent people and those coping with trauma. She offers focused help around sleep disruption linked to trauma or neurodivergence, ADHD, autism, menopause transitions, grief, anxiety and relationship challenges. Sessions are tailored to what each person needs in the moment.

Sarah is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated as BACP. She also holds Graduate Member status with the British Psychological Society and practices as an accredited practitioner with IPHM as stated in her biography.

In sessions she aims to build emotional regulation skills, reduce burnout, and help people find clearer choices. The work is collaborative - she listens, suggests small experiments, and supports people as they try new ways of coping.

If someone is looking to address adoption and foster care related concerns, attachment or family of origin issues, Sarah includes those topics among her focus areas and will adapt sessions to those needs when relevant.

How Sarah’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the conversation. The counsellor listens without judgement and follows the client’s pace, helping people find their own answers and feel understood.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect feelings. It breaks problems into manageable steps and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep disruption.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, focuses on building emotional regulation and distress tolerance skills. It is useful when emotions feel overwhelming and someone needs tools to manage sudden shifts or strong reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sarah will discuss options and tailor methods to a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and will adjust plans as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where techniques are tried and reviewed together.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm the available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people connect from different locations, which helps those living outside the therapist’s area or who need to work around a tight schedule.
