About Sarah

Sarah Lambert MA is a counsellor who uses gentle, person-focused work to help people find clearer ways forward. She keeps sessions straightforward and centred on what matters to the person in front of her. Sarah listens for the things that get in the way of living a life that feels true and meaningful.

Sarah holds a Master of Arts in Clinical Counselling, awarded with distinction, and she is a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has three years' experience and has completed Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), which supports her work with people facing suicidal thoughts. Her background gives her practical experience with a wide range of concerns.

In sessions she focuses on what the client wants to change and how to use their own strengths to get there. Sarah draws on Client-Centred Therapy to build a non-judgemental space, and Solution-Focused Therapy to set achievable steps and short-term goals. This mix aims to balance compassionate listening with practical next steps.

People come to Sarah for many reasons, including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, codependency, addictions, eating and body-image issues, and coping with life changes. She also works with attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness, and caregiver stress.

When someone starts with Sarah they are invited to describe their world and priorities. She works collaboratively, helping to name small changes and testing what helps in day-to-day life. The focus is on gradual movement toward feeling more connected to who you want to be.

How Sarah uses client-centred and solution-focused work online

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person and their experience at the heart of the work. It means the counsellor listens without judgement, reflects what is heard, and helps a person feel understood so they can explore what matters most. This approach is useful for issues like low self-esteem, grief, trauma and identity questions.

Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on practical steps and small changes. It asks what people want to be different and identifies achievable goals and actions to try between sessions. This can suit stress, anxiety, codependency patterns and life changes where testing simple strategies is helpful.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The counsellor will work collaboratively to decide which methods suit the person's needs, goals and preferences. That may mean combining person-centred listening with short-term, goal-oriented tasks so the work feels both supportive and active.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by removing travel time and allowing sessions around work, caregiving or other commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or sessions that focus on practical tasks where talking through what to try next is the priority.
