About Sarah

NCPS. 5 years' experience. Sarah King works with adults aged 18 and above on relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, stress and anxiety, grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, career matters and coping with life changes. She is neurodivergent and gender affirming, and she also focuses on issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, codependency, blended family problems, caregiver stress, domestic violence, and feelings of emptiness or shame.

Sarah practises person-centred counselling, also known as client-centred therapy. Sessions put the client's experience at the centre and aim to help people make sense of their feelings and choices. She may offer reflective exercises and psycho-educational information to support learning between sessions, but these are optional and used only when helpful.

Her approach is collaborative. She does not give direct advice or provide answers; instead she works alongside people to help them understand what feels right for them. The work often involves looking closely at painful material, and Sarah describes that process as important for change.

Sarah has practical experience across trauma responses and survivors of abuse and sexual assault, and she supports people dealing with bereavement and suicidal thinking. She helps people who are managing family of origin issues, divorce and separation, commitment concerns and dependent or avoidant personality patterns.

Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted. Costs vary with location and are paid through a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.

How client-centred work translates to online counselling

Person-centred or client-centred therapy focuses on placing the client's experience at the heart of the work. It involves listening carefully, reflecting feelings back, and supporting people to make their own decisions. This approach suits issues where understanding emotions and life choices is important, such as relationship problems, bereavement, or struggles with self-esteem.

Sarah may offer short reflective exercises and psycho-educational material between sessions to support learning. These are optional and discussed together, so the client stays involved in choosing what to try. Finding the right way of working is a collaborative process and the counsellor will help identify which methods fit the client's needs and goals.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into daily life, reduce travel time, and allow sessions to take place from a location that suits the client. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require video when that is preferred. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists can discuss practical arrangements when the first session is scheduled.
