Sara Dallat
Supportive counsellor for identity and trauma
About Sara
Sara Dallat helps people who are struggling with identity, relationships and the impact of past harm. She offers calm, respectful conversations that focus on what matters most to each person. Sara uses a straightforward, compassionate style to make it easier to take the first steps toward change.
Sara is a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) registered counsellor with three years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting strains and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
Her practice also covers attachment difficulties, body image and post-traumatic stress, plus concerns linked to pregnancy, childbirth, sexuality and women's issues. During sessions Sara tailors the conversation and the plan to each person's needs. She aims to help people understand patterns, build self-compassion and try small changes that fit daily life.
The approach is collaborative - the client and Sara decide what to focus on together. Sara emphasises respect and sensitivity on every topic. She offers support that is practical and steady rather than rushed.
That steadiness helps people feel able to tackle difficult memories or take steps to improve relationships and self-worth. People often begin by naming one or two concerns they want to change. From there Sara helps set realistic goals and chooses ways of working that suit each person's pace and circumstances.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to help people understand and change unhelpful patterns. One common method focuses on exploring how past relationships shape present feelings and behaviours, helping people notice patterns and try new ways of relating. Another approach emphasises building self-compassion and practical coping skills to manage symptoms of trauma, anxiety or low self-esteem and to handle difficult memories.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that match a person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist check progress and adjust the plan as needed.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people meet face to face when travel is difficult, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when typing feels more comfortable than speaking. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent and flexible around work, childcare or other commitments.
