About Sarah

Dr. Sarah Enderby is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' clinical experience. She works with adults who are struggling with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, and the stress that comes from caring for others or living around difficult moods. She also supports people dealing with trauma, grief, codependency and questions of sexual orientation and identity.

Sarah uses straightforward talking therapy to help people name what is happening for them. Sessions usually focus on understanding patterns that cause repeated pain - such as people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, or getting lost in other people's lives. She helps clients notice how early relationships shape current choices and reactions.

Her approach draws on attachment work and psychodynamic ideas to look at long-standing patterns. She combines this with client-centred practice, which means conversations stay focused on the person's experience in the room. The Gottman Method and Internal Family Systems are also part of her toolkit when relationship dynamics and internal parts are useful to explore.

Sarah's background includes many years in the corporate sector before moving into counselling. That experience informs a practical style that suits people juggling work, family and other commitments. She can talk with clients about career stress and compassion fatigue as well as personal relationships.

People reach out to her at times of crisis and at moments of decision. She asks clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session so they can talk through immediate concerns and decide next steps together.

How sessions work

How her approaches work in online sessions

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at current relationship patterns and how early bonds shape today's responses. It helps when codependency, abandonment fears or trouble trusting others are part of the problem. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client's experience in the moment and uses open conversation to help people find their own solutions and make clearer choices.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss the options with the client and decide together which methods suit the person's goals, background and practical needs. This is a collaborative process that can change as therapy progresses.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking because they are not listed in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, save travel time and allow a shorter check-in when life is busy. They also make it possible to continue talks while living in a different part of the UK, but international work is not currently taken. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find remote sessions work well for ongoing relationship work, pattern-focused therapy and managing anxiety.
