Testimonials

IFS

When Sarah asked for a testimonial I missed the deadline of a week because I was doing all the things I had struggled to do before seeing her. I was being creative, I was connecting with people, I was using my voice, I was just smelling fresh cut grass. Because I cannot simply say what the therapeutic time I've spent with her has done for my life. Because, everything! She's really good.

EMDR

Having 11 months of EMDR therapy with Sarah has been truly life changing. From our very first consultation, she created a welcoming and supportive environment, which immediately put me at ease. Sarah clearly explained the EMDR process and outlined what our sessions would involve, providing a structure that I found incredibly helpful and reassuring. Sarah's compassionate nature made me feel very safe and heard in our sessions. She broke down concepts into clear, understandable explanations which helped me to understand and process how I was feeling. Where some sessions were more emotionally difficult, Sarah made this feel contained and held.... Read All

Sarah clearly explained the EMDR process and outlined what our sessions would involve, providing a structure that I found incredibly helpful and reassuring. Sarah's compassionate nature made me feel very safe and heard in our sessions. She broke down concepts into clear, understandable explanations which helped me to understand and process how I was feeling. Where some sessions were more emotionally difficult, Sarah made this feel contained and held. She also helped me to develop tools to use in and outside of our sessions, which I still use now. Through EMDR therapy I have been able to challenge different self-beliefs and manage my anxiety, and my life has massively changed for the better. Sarah is fantastic at what she does. I am so grateful for our sessions and what they have done for me. I didn’t think that I could get to this place now, but with her help, I have. Thank you!

“Prior to working with Sarah I had vagus nerve dysfunction which left me in a very poor physical and mental state. I had tried therapy in the past which never worked for me, I realise now that the core beliefs were never addressed l, only the coping mechanisms I had picked up to be able to manage the pain. After several months of EMDR therapy i was able to understand how the root cause of my problems had been affecting my everyday life over and over.

I clearly had been avoiding this for many years, it should have come as no surprise that my body was screaming no more. It can be a tough process but a necessity to face your fears to be able to move forward. Without Sarah’s help I wouldn’t be on the road to recovery. I will miss her dearly with her welcoming, comforting aura 😌”

EMDR

“I have completed a 12 week course of EMDR therapy with Sarah. I found Sarah’s approach from the start friendly, professional and compassionate. Sarah’s flexibility with appointments and fees meant that I could complete the full 12 sessions consecutively and get the full benefit. Sarah created a safe, comfortable and non-judgmental space that allowed me to be open and honest without anxiety. All the sessions were online and this worked really well. EMDR has been very successful for me; after having years of talking therapy and getting stuck, EMDR has shifted old trauma and allowed me to move forward. I... Read All

EMDR

"When I think about my therapy sessions with Sarah it makes me want to cry - in a good way. I almost can't even put into words how thankful I am for her, how much her approach and care helped me through almost 8 months of EMDR, which is in its nature an incredibly hard therapy. The space that Sarah created was safe, free of judgement, and so full of compassion. She's given me tools that I will use throughout my life, and the way she untangled and explained everything that I was going through with so much clarity has... Read All

I'll never forget what I went through, but Sarah has gotten me to a place that I didn't ever think would be possible. EMDR is a therapy I would definitely recommend, and especially one I would recommend to be done with Sarah."

Psychotherapy

I am both happy and sad today, as after 15 months of therapy I was ready to say goodbye to Sarah.  Happy because I am going forward in life as a whole different person. Able to manage my emotions and let go of the past. Sad because I will miss her.  She is such a special person who knows how to get the best from her clients, in a kind and supportive way. Thank you Sarah

EMDR

"Working with Sarah over the last few months with a mixture of EMDR and talking therapy has helped me to really understand some of the sources and core beliefs behind how I handle and process situations in my day to day life. Sarah has always been kind and compassionate, whilst also being able to ensure that the type of treatment I am receiving is actually suitable for my needs, adapting to mood changes and events that have occurred between our sessions.

Anxiety

“With Sarah's support over the last 2 months, I have started feeling physically, mentally, and emotionally much, much, better. I have generalised anxiety and prior to working with Sarah, it was affecting me very physically with stomach pains and panic attacks - both of which have subsided. She is an extremely professional and proficient EMDR practitioner. Before we started working together, I did some tests and she asked me lots of questions to discover my history before setting out a treatment plan, which made me feel deeply understood and listened to.

Sarah is a good combination of patient and assertive, using her knowledge to help guide the session the right way. Every time is extremely powerful, and I can literally feel the emotions and feelings come out of my body. Sarah also provides me with worksheets and tips that are specific to me. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for EMDR or looking to reduce stress and anxiety caused by a traumatic event.”

IFS / EMDR

'I highly recommend Sarah and the incredible work she does. She is deeply professional, exceptionally knowledgeable, intuitive, kind, and genuinely caring. The transformative combination of Internal Family Systems and EMDR techniques she uses is very effective. Through our sessions, we were able to dive into deep, meaningful work, and I am incredibly grateful for the lasting impact it has had on my growth and healing.'
