About Sabrina

Sabrina Faulkner is a counsellor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and grief. She supports people facing LGBT issues, intimacy-related worries, sleeping problems and parenting strain. She also works with people dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and mood difficulties such as depression and bipolar-related challenges.

Sabrina trained in psychology and holds a diploma in hypnotherapy, and she lists NCPS among her credentials. She practices with a human-focused style and aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s needs. Her way of working is warm and respectful, with an emphasis on listening and understanding where a person is coming from.

In sessions she draws on approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness tools, and she also uses hypnotherapy and existential ideas when appropriate. These methods are described and chosen to suit the concern being worked on rather than used the same way for everyone.

She combines independent practice work with volunteer roles and has written as an author. Her stated aim is to hold space for people during difficult times and to help them find practical ways forward. If you are uncertain where to begin, she encourages an initial conversation to shape a plan together.

Sessions are offered in English and take place in the United Kingdom. Before booking, confirm the session formats available for your circumstances and schedule.

Approaches that guide online conversations

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on treating people with respect and empathy and helping them find their own solutions; it is useful for relationship worries, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together and offers practical tools to reduce anxiety, manage mood and improve sleep. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and increase calm in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what matters to you and try methods that match your goals and preferences. That means testing what feels useful and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming a single route will fit everyone.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before you book. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins when needed. It can also allow sessions to continue when life is busy or when meeting in person is harder to arrange, while the therapist and client decide practical arrangements that suit them both.
