About Sally

Sally Howard is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She holds BACP accreditation, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy registration. Sally offers calm, practical support for people facing distressing life events and ongoing problems.

She often helps with stress and anxiety, relationship worries, grief and loss, and difficulties after trauma or abuse. She also supports people dealing with fertility concerns, terminal illness, and parenting strain. Jealousy, infidelity and intimacy-related issues are also listed among her focus areas.

Sally uses a client-centred approach, which means conversations follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She aims to build a strong therapeutic connection and adapts sessions to each person’s needs. Sessions tend to be straightforward and focused on what helps someone cope day to day.

Her work also covers mood conditions such as depression and bipolar, as well as obsessive thoughts, panic attacks and compulsive behaviours. She supports people with practical problems too, including work stress, hoarding and difficulties sleeping.

Sally describes her role as a compassionate companion through change. She will listen, reflect and help people consider choices and next steps. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and sessions are scheduled according to availability.

How Sally’s client-centred approach works online

Sally uses client-centred therapy, which focuses on the person’s own experience. In this approach the therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and follows the client’s pace. It helps with issues like anxiety, relationship stress, grief and confusion about life choices.

The therapist will work with each person to find the best way forward. Deciding which methods to try is a collaborative process. Sally will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, then adapt sessions as needs change.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy day and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work, childcare or treatment schedules. Because the original profile does not list specific session formats, please confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online counselling that aims to match face-to-face therapy in support and depth, while making appointments easier to arrange.
