About Sarah
Sarah Trent is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of experience. She works with adults who are carrying stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and struggles with guilt and shame.
She trained at the University of Warwick with a BA (Hons) in counselling and psychotherapy. Over six years she has combined counselling, psychotherapy and health and wellbeing coaching to support people facing emotional and life challenges. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent for the person in front of her.
Sarah uses a person-centred approach that centres the client's perspective and preferences. Conversations are practical and grounded. She listens to what matters, reflects it back, and helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck or feeling isolated.
People who bring guilt or shame often start by naming a specific incident or a long-standing sense of not being good enough. In sessions Sarah helps them talk through the thoughts and actions tied to those feelings and looks at ways to reduce their daily impact. Work can include exploring beliefs about self, noticing triggers, and practising different responses.
She also supports those dealing with social anxiety, lack of confidence, loneliness, and questions about life purpose. The focus is on small, manageable steps and clearer thinking about what someone wants next from life.
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Sarah draws on evidence-based techniques that are practical and easy to explain. Person-centred work places the client's concerns at the centre of each session, letting conversations follow what feels most pressing and building from there. Brief cognitive techniques help people notice unhelpful thoughts, test their accuracy, and try different responses to reduce distress. When trauma or abuse is part of the picture the focus is on stabilising feelings and building coping strategies before addressing painful memories.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, explain what each approach involves, and agree a plan that matches the client's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that adapts as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins between meetings, or avoid being on camera when that feels difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can also suggest between-session tasks to practise new ways of thinking and behaving.
