Sarah Trent

Sarah Trent is a BACP-registered counsellor with six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and issues with self-esteem. She also focuses on guilt and shame, loneliness and isolation, social anxiety and questions about life purpose.

She trained at the University of Warwick, gaining a BA (Hons) in counselling and psychotherapy. Over six years she has worked as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach, supporting practical concerns such as motivation and confidence as well as emotional recovery after upsetting experiences.

Sarah uses person-centred therapy as a core way of working. In sessions she focuses on listening, reflecting and helping people identify what matters most to them. The approach aims to make space for honest conversation about where clients feel stuck and what they want to change.

Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person. Clients can expect time to talk through recent stressors, to notice patterns in relationships, and to examine feelings like guilt, shame or low self-worth. Sarah also brings coaching skills when people want practical steps or clearer goals.

If someone is unsure how to begin, she asks straightforward questions to clarify priorities and next steps. For practical details about session formats and scheduling, clients should confirm current options before booking.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Sarah describes her work as person-centred and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in session. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflection, helping someone notice patterns in thoughts and relationships and decide what they want to change. This approach is often helpful for people feeling stuck, unsure about life purpose, or struggling with low self-esteem.

She also integrates practical coaching skills to support motivation and goal-setting. Those skills break larger concerns into small, manageable steps so clients can test changes between sessions. This combination suits people who want both space to talk and clear next actions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will explore a client’s needs, goals and preferences and then agree a way of working together. That choice is collaborative and can be adjusted as the work progresses.

The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions can be useful when video feels like too much, while video supports visual connection and a fuller conversation. Registered or accredited professionals often offer several formats to suit daily life.
