Sarah Cree, BACP

Sarah Cree works as a counsellor in the United Kingdom and brings six years of independent-practice experience to her work. She offers a calm, compassionate space where people are listened to and treated with respect. Her aim is to help clients feel seen and supported as they make changes.

Sarah uses a person-centred approach that foregrounds the client's own goals and experience. She blends practical methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques and dialectical behaviour ideas with mindfulness and creative methods when helpful. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs in the moment.

She has a long history supporting neurodivergent people and those coping with trauma. That background informs how she works with issues such as ADHD, autism, sleep disruption linked to trauma, grief, anxiety and relationship challenges. Sarah also focuses on transitions like menopause, and on building emotional regulation and resilience.

Sarah is a qualified mindfulness coach and describes her practice as trauma-informed and intuitive. She sometimes uses expressive tools such as writing or sandtray alongside talking therapy to help people access difficult material in different ways.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is recorded as BACP. If you are considering therapy, she asks clients to start where they feel able and offers steady support as they work towards clearer boundaries, greater calm and better sleep.

Approaches that suit online work and practical life

Sarah commonly uses client-centred ways of working and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people make clear changes. Client-centred work focuses on listening, building trust and following what matters most to the client, which helps people feel understood and more able to try things differently. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thoughts and behaviours and use step-by-step strategies to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and manage mood.

She also draws on dialectical behaviour therapy ideas for emotional regulation and coping skills when strong emotions are present. DBT-style skills teach breathing and grounding practices, ways to tolerate distress and clearer communication methods. Choosing the right mix of approaches is collaborative - the therapist and client will discuss goals, try different methods and adjust the plan as they go.

If you are thinking about online therapy, check the available session options before booking as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, avoid travel time and keep sessions shorter when needed. It can also allow for guided mindfulness or written exercises between meetings to reinforce progress. Registered or accredited professionals tailor the approach to your needs and help you find what works in day-to-day life.
