Sarah Marlow-Rawles
Person-centred counsellor with attachment focus
About Sarah
Sarah Marlow-Rawles uses a person-centred and attachment-informed approach to support people through difficult times. She is known for listening carefully and helping clients find practical ways forward. Sarah holds BACP registration, and brings 13 years of experience working with a wide range of issues.
She speaks English and practises from the United Kingdom. In sessions she starts by hearing each person's story and noticing their strengths. Conversations focus on what matters now and what small changes could make life easier.
Background and approach
Sarah draws on attachment-based ideas to understand relationship patterns and on client-centred ways to keep the work grounded in individual needs. Her background includes working with stress, anxiety, depression and issues around self-esteem and motivation. She also supports people facing grief, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping difficulties, and complicated family-related concerns such as adoption, blended family stress and separation.
Additional areas include addiction, codependency, chronic illness and caregiver strain. Sarah uses practical, short-term tools from solution-focused practice alongside psychodynamic and trauma-focused thinking when deeper patterns need attention. This mix aims to balance immediate coping with longer-term change.
Sessions are paced to suit each person, with emphasis on clarity and achievable steps. People can work with Sarah by video, phone, live chat or text messaging. To begin they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

Approach-driven online therapy with practical support
Sarah commonly draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early and current relationship patterns shape thoughts and feelings; this helps when intimacy, abandonment or attachment issues are causing distress. She also uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening deeply and following the client’s agenda so each person’s pace and priorities lead the work. When deeper patterns or past trauma are present she can integrate psychodynamic and trauma-focused ideas to explore recurring themes and their origins.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to match methods to a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and may combine approaches as the work unfolds. That means practical tools for immediate coping alongside discussion of longer-term patterns when helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexibility. Video calls suit conversations that benefit from face-to-face contact, phone sessions can be used for lower bandwidth or brief check-ins, and chat or messaging can fit into busy days or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and accessibility.
