Sally Masson, BACP

Sally Masson offers support for stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, life changes, addictions, grief and issues around intimacy. She also helps with sleep problems, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem, career questions, coaching and ADHD. Sally works from a practical, exploratory stance that helps people find ways to feel more in control. She invites a calm, accepting space where clients can talk about difficult feelings without judgement.

Sally uses ideas from attachment-based work to look at how past relationships shape current ones. She draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for managing intense emotions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy features in her work when relationship patterns and connection are the focus. These approaches are used flexibly to match each person’s needs.

Her style is collaborative and adaptive. She pays attention to the client’s inner life and the patterns that repeat in relationships. Conversations might include reflecting on life stories, learning emotional regulation skills, or trying new ways of communicating. Sally aims for clear, manageable steps rather than jargon.

With ten years of clinical experience and a BACP affiliation, Sally brings steady, experienced support. She works with adults in the United Kingdom and holds sessions in English. International clients are not accepted at this time.

To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, and pricing varies with location and therapist availability.

How Sally’s approaches work online

Sally works with attachment-based ideas and Dialectical Behavior Therapy online in ways that mirror in-person work. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people understand connection and trust. This can help with relationship distress, abandonment worries and attachment issues. DBT teaches clear skills for managing intense emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. It is useful for anxiety, anger and emotional overwhelm.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Sally will discuss your goals, what has helped or not helped before, and try methods that match your needs. Decisions about what to use are made collaboratively and reviewed as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online sessions, check the current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins on a break, or providing options that suit quieter surroundings. Many people find that meeting by video or other agreed formats helps them keep therapy consistent while managing daily commitments.
