Sarah Henderson, NCPS

Sarah Henderson is a counsellor who works from a person-centred place and uses practical techniques to help people feel steadier. She is listed with NCPS and has four years of experience supporting people through worry, low mood and relationship concerns. She approaches conversations with respect, sensitivity and compassion and adapts what she does to each person’s needs.

Her practice blends Client-Centred Therapy with elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. That means sessions often start by listening to what matters most to the client, then trying out small changes in thinking and behaviour. She uses plain language and practical steps rather than jargon, so people understand what they can try between sessions.

Sarah has worked with concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression and self-esteem. She also helps people dealing with grief, trauma, addictions, eating and sleeping difficulties, and intimacy-related issues. Additional areas she addresses include jealousy, attachment questions, blended family challenges, and gender dysphoria.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She aims to create a space where someone can talk through painful topics and build concrete coping strategies. Sessions focus on manageable goals and things a person can practise in daily life.

How Sarah’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist offers a non-judgemental space and follows the client’s pace while helping them name what matters most. This approach helps with issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and emotional overwhelm.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviours influence mood. It breaks problems into smaller, manageable steps and suggests practical exercises to try between sessions. CBT can be useful for anxiety, stress, sleeping or eating difficulties, and tackling unhelpful thought patterns.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and how someone prefers to work. Together they decide whether to emphasise listening and reflection, practical CBT tasks, or a blend of both as therapy progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and reduce travel time. It may also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or different ways of working depending on a person’s energy and daily routine.
