About Sarah

Sarah Cree is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with six years of private-practice experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, depression, addictions, and anger. Sessions are also offered for sleep disruption, identity questions, and workplace frustration.

She uses a person-centred style that keeps the client’s priorities central. Sarah draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioural work and dialectical behaviour approaches alongside mindfulness practices. Sessions tend to mix talking with simple exercises aimed at emotional regulation and clearer thinking.

Sarah has spent a decade supporting neurodivergent people and brings that lived understanding into her work. That experience informs her approach to ADHD, autism and related issues such as sensory overwhelm and sleep disturbance. She describes her work as collaborative and down-to-earth.

In practice she also uses solution-focused strategies to set short-term goals and measure progress. Where trauma is part of the picture, trauma-informed principles guide the pace and the interventions. She names practical supports such as written exercises, grounding techniques and breathing work.

Sarah is a qualified mindfulness coach and incorporates mindfulness-based routines for emotional regulation and stress reduction. She offers support around career decisions, parenting strain, body-image concerns and compassion fatigue, using straightforward steps people can try between sessions.

How her approaches translate to online work

Sarah blends client-centred practice with cognitive behavioural techniques and dialectical behaviour ideas. Client-centred work focuses on what matters to the person and shapes sessions around their priorities. Cognitive behavioural techniques look at thinking patterns and practical steps to change unhelpful behaviours. Dialectical behaviour ideas teach skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Sarah will explore your goals and try a mix of methods to see what helps. She will work with you to set short-term goals and review what is and isn’t useful as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. They also allow brief check-ins when people need a shorter conversation, and they can support the use of written exercises, guided mindfulness and breathing practices between meetings. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors, commonly use these practical benefits to help people manage anger, stress and everyday demands.
