About Sally
Sally Pinkus is a counsellor who supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions and codependency. She helps with depression, eating and sleeping problems, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, and managing change. Sally also addresses issues such as grief, self-esteem, anger, ADHD and compassion fatigue. She is based in the United Kingdom and works in English.
Sally uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. She listens first to understand each person's experience, then adapts her approach to what that person needs. Her work draws on attachment ideas to look at relationship patterns, cognitive behavioural techniques to address thinking and behaviour, and client-centred listening to build trust.
Her background includes a credential with NCPS. Over three years she has supported people through practical changes and coping strategies. She aims to make sessions feel calm and approachable, so people can speak freely about difficult topics.
In practice Sally blends short-term strategies with conversations that look at longer patterns. That can mean setting small goals, trying new habits between sessions, and reflecting on past relationship patterns that affect today. She also uses motivational interviewing techniques to help people find their own reasons to change.
People who choose Sally often want clear steps as well as time to talk. She encourages collaborative planning so each person can build on strengths and make realistic changes over time.
Approaches that can guide online counselling
Sally commonly draws on attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps people understand why they respond a certain way in close relationships and can be useful for intimacy-related issues and codependency.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviours. CBT can be helpful for anxiety, low mood, sleeping problems and practical coping strategies.
Choosing an approach is a joint process. The counsellor will listen to your goals and try different ways of working to find what fits best. Sessions often combine talking, small between-session tasks and gentle reflection so you can test changes between meetings.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not possible. Many people find remote sessions help them keep continuity of care while juggling family and work commitments.
