About Sally
Sally Smith is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) with five years' experience. She works in the United Kingdom with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression and coping with life changes, and has a particular focus on young adult issues.
Sally sees people from a wide range of backgrounds and has worked across in-person and remote sessions. She offers both short-term counselling with a set number of meetings and longer open-ended work when that suits the person. Sessions are guided by what the client needs to talk about and work on.
Her main approach is client-centred therapy, which places the person’s perspective at the heart of the work. Alongside that, she draws on methods such as cognitive behavioural techniques and resilience-building when these fit the goals in a session. The emphasis is on practical steps and clearer understanding rather than on labels.
Sally has experience helping people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, bereavement, loss of direction, relationship difficulties with partners, friends, parents and colleagues, job and career concerns including impostor syndrome, and difficulties linked to OCD and PTSD. She aims to work collaboratively to clarify priorities and next steps.

How Sally’s approaches translate to remote work
Sally’s main approach is client-centred therapy, which focuses on the person’s own experience and aims to make sessions led by what they bring. This approach helps when someone needs to talk through feelings, make sense of difficulties, and set their own priorities for change.She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques in a practical way to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small experiments or strategies to reduce anxiety or lift mood. Resilience-building work looks at skills and routines that support coping during life changes and recovery from setbacks.
Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Sally treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss goals, preferences and practical constraints together to decide what to try first. That means the plan can change as needs become clearer.
The biography notes prior experience with both in-person and remote sessions, but current session formats were not specified. Please confirm the available formats before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit meetings around work, study and travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or offer a choice about being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often use these flexibilities to help sessions fit everyday life rather than forcing big schedule changes.
