About Sabrina
Sabrina Faulkner is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, and codependency. She also supports those dealing with sleep problems, parenting strain, identity and LGBT concerns, low self-esteem, and major life changes. Sabrina uses plain language and a straightforward style to help people feel heard and understood.
She trained in psychology and holds a diploma in hypnotherapy, and lists NCPS as a credential. Sabrina describes her way of working as humanistic and client-centred, which means sessions focus on the person in front of her rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. She tailors conversations and exercises to each person’s needs and values.
In practice she draws on a mix of approaches. Cognitive behavioural techniques may be used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness-based ideas help with grounding and staying present. Hypnotherapy can be offered as an option for specific goals when suitable.
Sabrina runs a private practice in the United Kingdom and does volunteer work alongside that. She has six years of experience and has written a book, which she lists as an achievement alongside becoming a spiritual counsellor. Those details inform how she shapes sessions and the resources she suggests.
People who choose to work with her can expect practical suggestions and calm, non-judgemental listening. She aims to create space for people to talk through difficult feelings and to work together on small, manageable steps toward change.
How these approaches work in online counselling
Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person seeking help, and it helps people feel understood while they consider changes in their life. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and offers simple exercises to test and change unhelpful habits; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The counsellor will work with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences, rather than offering the same plan to everyone. Sessions begin with conversation about what feels most urgent and practical steps are agreed together.
Because the original biography does not list specific online session formats, confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten travel time and allow for different ways to engage, such as talking or guided exercises. It can be useful when someone needs a brief check-in between in-person sessions, wants to use mindfulness or CBT homework between meetings, or prefers a calmer setup that reduces travel and time commitments.
