About Sandra
Sandra Adams is a BACP and NCPS registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 26 years' experience. She works mainly with addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and common mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. Sandra sees people for a wide range of practical and emotional problems and uses Client-Centred, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused methods.
Sandra commonly helps people facing grief, trauma and abuse, and stresses around parenting, caregiving and money. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, infidelity and problems with communication. Her practice includes work related to BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture alongside support for LGBT clients.
Her background includes specialist roles with domestic abuse, psychosexual and gambling addictions, and she has run a Family and Friends group for people affected by a loved one’s gambling. That experience informs how she frames safety, boundaries and practical steps in sessions. Sandra also provides clinical supervision.
In session she draws on Client-Centred Therapy to listen and reflect, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change patterns of thinking and behaviour, and Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, practical steps that move things forward. These approaches are used to match what each person brings to therapy.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Sandra works with the issues people bring and helps them plan manageable actions between meetings. She encourages straightforward discussion about what is realistic and helpful in day-to-day life.

How her approaches shape online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client; it helps people feel heard and clarify their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and supports practical changes to reduce anxiety, low mood or unhelpful behaviours. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and on building what already works in a person’s life.The therapist treats choosing an approach as a collaborative task. She will help clients weigh what feels most useful based on their goals and preferences, and try approaches that suit the issue at hand. Sessions often mix listening, practical planning and short exercises to test what helps.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by reducing travel and allowing sessions during a lunch break or after work. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when that fits someone’s schedule, or for meetings without being on camera if that feels better. Registered and accredited professionals commonly use these practical benefits to help therapy fit around daily commitments.
