About Sarah

Sarah Trent practises a person-centred approach that puts the client at the heart of therapy. She offers steady, compassionate support and listens without judgement. Sarah’s style aims to help people feel heard and understood as they talk about what matters most to them.

She qualified with a Bachelor of Arts honours in counselling and psychotherapy from the University of Warwick. Since qualifying she has worked as a counsellor, psychotherapist and health and wellbeing coach for six years.

Background and approach

That background means she draws on practical experience with a range of problems. Sarah helps people manage stress and anxiety and works with low mood and depression. She supports those dealing with trauma and abuse and people who are struggling with self-esteem, motivation or a loss of confidence.

She also addresses relationship difficulties and issues like guilt, shame, loneliness and social anxiety. In sessions, Sarah follows person-centred principles, meeting each person’s unique needs and priorities. She encourages clients to lead the pace and focus, and she offers reflective listening to help make sense of feelings and choices.

The emphasis is on building trust and on small, realistic steps towards change. Sarah sees the act of seeking help as a brave decision and aims to empower people to find more fulfilment. Her work is practical and down-to-earth, aimed at helping clients make clearer decisions and feel more able to cope day to day.

Sessions & fees

Person-centred work and flexible online delivery

Person-centred therapy focuses on the relationship between counsellor and client. The counsellor offers non-judgemental listening and reflection to help the person make sense of their feelings and choices. This approach can help with low mood, anxiety, confidence and relationship concerns.

Practical wellbeing coaching complements counselling by focusing on small, achievable steps and daily habits. Coaching can support people who want clearer goals, more motivation or help rebuilding confidence after trauma or difficult life changes.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and preferences, and together they will choose the right mix of counselling and coaching. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the person move forward.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, so people can pick what works for them. Video lets people use visual cues and longer conversations. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for shorter check-ins and for communicating when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity between sessions.
