Sara Roberts, BACP

Sara Roberts is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief and parenting strains. Sara is listed for Supporting carers and can work with people coping with caregiver stress and compassion fatigue.

She takes a person-centred approach that puts the client’s priorities first. That means the person sets the pace and topics, while the counsellor listens and reflects rather than directing the session. Silence and pauses are treated as part of the process and often open space for deeper reflection.

Sara uses mindfulness techniques alongside client-centred work to help people notice thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. Mindfulness can be used to reduce anxiety, improve self-awareness and calm reactive thinking.

Her style is calm, patient and straightforward. Sessions aim to make difficult feelings easier to name and understand. Practical coping ideas may be offered when useful, and goals are shaped around what each person wants to change.

Sara practises in the United Kingdom and holds BACP accreditation. She speaks English. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. The service uses a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How client-centred work and mindfulness translate to online therapy

Person-Centred Therapy focuses on the person rather than on the counsellor’s agenda. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps when people want space to make sense of feelings about relationships, loss or caregiving stress.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple ways to notice thoughts and bodily sensations without immediate reaction. It can be useful for easing anxiety, reducing rumination and improving emotional awareness in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Sara will work with each person to decide which mix of person-centred listening and mindfulness fits their needs and goals. Together they set the pace and decide what to try next.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily commitments, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue sessions during life changes, while the therapist and client explore practical steps for coping and growth.
