About Sandra
BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years' experience, Sandra Holden helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem, depression and life changes. She uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide conversations and practical work.
Sandra keeps sessions focused and straightforward. She listens to what matters most and talks through steps people can try between meetings. CBT provides tools to test unhelpful thoughts and change patterns, while client-centred work centres on the person's own priorities and pace.
Her approach is practical. People learn small skills they can use day to day, such as breathing techniques, thought records, and planning manageable actions. Sessions balance talking about feelings with looking at what can be changed in everyday life.
Sandra adapts the way she works to the person in front of her rather than following one fixed script. She explains options clearly and checks progress together during sessions. The emphasis is on clear goals and small, achievable steps.
Sessions are conducted in English. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, people use the online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How her therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's own views and priorities. The counsellor offers a listening, non-directive style and follows the pace the person sets. This approach helps when someone needs space to clarify what matters and to make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises such as thought records and activity planning to reduce anxiety and low mood. CBT is useful for managing stress, anger and repetitive unhelpful thinking.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options together and agree what to try first. That plan can change as progress is tracked and needs shift, so decisions remain collaborative.
Practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting therapy into a typical week and reducing travel time. Confirm the session formats available before booking, as the biography does not specify which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or evening appointments and to use written worksheets and recordings as part of follow-up between meetings.
