About me

PLEASE NOTE- I have availability in the mornings and some early afternoons. I do not offer video calling, live chats or evening sessions.

Do you want to feel happier? Do you suffer with anxiety, depression, feeling sad or have low self-esteem? Maybe you feel stuck. Sometimes there is a specific reason and we know what is making us feel that way, other times it appears there is no reason at all. Counselling can help unpick what’s going on, identify those thoughts and for it to feel less overwhelming. My name is Sarah and I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with over 6 years’ experience of working with adults, children and young people. I work in an integrative way with Person Centred being at the core. Alongside my Private Practice (Green Gables Therapy -www.green-gables-therapy.co.uk), I have also worked within a charity for adults, children and young people, as a College Counsellor and more recently as a telephone Counsellor for an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) providing short term, solution focussed therapy.
My experience includes a variety of presenting issues including but not exclusive to -life, work and social anxiety, self-harm, stress, neurodiversity (ASD, ADHD), depression, suicidal ideation, low self-esteem, BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder), family issues, relationships, bullying, bereavement, OCD, divorce and Bipolar Disorder.

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Sarah Wood. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

Sarah is a non-judgmental, careful and understanding listener. She quickly got to grips with my main concerns, the various characters involved in my life and the recent events which have made life more difficult. She navigates problems sensitivley and is helping me work through my issues at my own pace.
