Sarah Leppard, BACP

Sarah Leppard is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She helps people facing low self-esteem, relationship strain, stress and anxiety, and those managing career uncertainty or major life changes. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, addiction-related concerns, sleeping and eating difficulties, and compassion fatigue.

Her work is grounded in listening first. Conversations are shaped around what matters most to each person. Sarah aims to make the room straightforward and calm so people can talk about difficult things without jargon. She tries to respond with honesty, respect and practical ideas.

Sarah draws on several approaches to match what someone needs. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre and helps build self-understanding. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and reworks those stories to open up new options. Solution-Focused Therapy targets small, achievable changes to build momentum.

Sessions focus on real-life problems and usable next steps. Sarah offers space to consider relationships, parenting stresses, fertility and family tensions, or the effects of long-term illness or caregiving. She also works with issues like anger, dissociation, abandonment, and the emotional impact of divorce and domestic violence.

People begin by choosing the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire. From there they can schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability and subscription terms.

How her therapeutic approaches work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person’s experience and helps people feel heard. It supports self-awareness and can be useful for stress, low confidence and life transitions. Narrative Therapy examines the stories people tell about their lives. By identifying unhelpful narratives, clients can begin to craft new, more useful stories that reduce blame and open options for change.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to what matters most, discuss different methods, and decide together which approach to try first. Plans are revisited as progress is made and goals evolve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to keep continuity during life changes. It can reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to see which formats are offered. Registered or accredited professionals can work effectively online and will help find a rhythm that fits someone’s everyday life.
