About Sarah
Sarah Leppard is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults on practical concerns such as relationship strain, low self-esteem, career difficulties, grief and coping with life changes.
Her sessions focus on straightforward conversation and finding what helps in day-to-day life. She listens to the situation and adapts the way she talks so sessions feel relevant. Clients can expect clear, respectful dialogue about what is happening now and what would be helpful next.
In practice Sarah draws on client-centred and narrative ideas to look at how people make sense of their experiences. She also uses psychodynamic thinking to notice patterns that repeat over time, and solution-focused steps when a short-term plan is useful. That mix lets her work with both immediate problems and longer-standing patterns.
She has particular experience with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting concerns, addiction-related issues, trauma and grief. Additional focus areas include abandonment, blended family issues, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Her approach is practical and conversational rather than theoretical.
Sarah accepts people from outside the UK and conducts sessions in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling an initial session. The site uses a cancellable subscription model for session fees, which vary by location.
Therapeutic approaches for online working
Sarah integrates client-centred and solution-focused approaches when working online. Client-centred work emphasises listening and responding to the person's immediate concerns, which helps when someone needs to feel understood and to clarify what matters most. Solution-focused work zooms in on small, practical steps and goals that can be tried between sessions to change routines or manage stress.She also draws on psychodynamic ideas to notice recurring patterns and relationships that shape current responses. That perspective is used gently to help people see repeated reactions and consider different choices, useful for issues like relationship tensions or repeated setbacks.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and try different ways of working together to find what fits best. This collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change, mixing brief action-oriented steps with deeper reflection when helpful.
Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, as these are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, caregiving or medical appointments, and some formats may allow shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations when that suits practical constraints.
