Sally Masson
Practical support for emotion and relationship struggles
About Sally
Sally Masson helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and depression. She also supports those coping with life changes, addictions, grief, intimacy issues, sleep problems and parenting strain. Sally works with concerns around anger, self-esteem, career questions, ADHD and a wide range of family and communication issues.
Sally keeps sessions simple and direct. She encourages people to describe what is happening in their lives and notices the patterns that make things harder.
Background and approach
Conversations aim to build clearer choices and small, manageable steps rather than overwhelming plans. Her approach uses several well established therapies to suit different needs. Attachment-based work looks at how important early relationships affect current feelings.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and soften powerful emotions that get in the way. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy adds practical skills for managing strong feelings and staying steady. Sally combines these methods with reflective, exploratory work influenced by existential and Jungian ideas.
That means talking about meaning, life transitions, and deeper personal themes when they are relevant. She adapts the style of each session to match what the person needs that day. With ten years of experience and BACP registration, Sally brings steady professional experience to the sessions.
She offers appointments in the United Kingdom and runs online sessions by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin, a person uses the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to the therapist's availability.

Sessions & fees
How therapy approaches translate to online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape feelings and expectations. Online work can help people notice those patterns in their current relationships and practice different ways of connecting. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps name and work with powerful emotions like fear, shame or anger so people can respond rather than react; this can reduce distance in close relationships. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, or DBT, teaches practical skills for managing intense feelings, tolerating distress and improving day-to-day coping in clear, step-by-step ways.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will listen to what matters most, discuss how different methods could help, and agree a plan together. That collaborative selection helps make sessions feel relevant and manageable from the start.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and hold longer conversations. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit brief updates, ongoing coaching, or when writing helps someone organise their thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on practical progress.
