Sarah Eversden, BACP

Sarah Eversden is a person-centred counsellor with five years' experience. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about anxiety, stress, grief, trauma and other concerns. Sarah aims to help clients feel heard and supported while they work towards the changes they want to make in their lives.

She keeps sessions client-led and moves at a pace set by the person attending. That might mean focusing on practical coping strategies one week and reflecting on early relationship patterns the next. The emphasis is on listening closely, validating feelings and helping people identify small steps they can try between sessions.

Sarah blends person-centred ways of working with attachment-based thinking and solution-focused ideas. When trauma or abuse are a concern she uses trauma-focused approaches in ways that suit each person. She explains options clearly and helps people choose what feels most useful for them.

Her areas of concern include anxiety, depression, self-esteem, addictions, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, eating issues, anger and career stress. Additional focus areas listed include attachment difficulties, ageing and geriatric issues, chronic illness and caregiver stress among others.

Sarah works in the United Kingdom and communicates in English. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP. To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability.

How Sarah’s approaches translate to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current emotions and reactions. In practice this can help people understand patterns that affect current relationships and closeness. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre, prioritising listening, acceptance and the pace the client chooses. Solution-focused therapy targets practical steps and small goals to create change over a shorter period.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sarah will discuss these ways of working with each person and agree collaboratively what to try first. Over time she adjusts methods to fit the client’s needs, goals and preferences rather than sticking to a fixed plan.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats Sarah currently offers before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also make it simpler to work through emotional topics from a familiar setting while still meeting in regular scheduled appointments. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often find online work effective for many of the concerns Sarah lists, and she will help decide together which way of meeting will suit you best.
