Hello, I’m Sarah Guthrie. I love helping people find balance, create change in many forms, and work through life transitions and challenges.
I am a trauma informed therapist and therapeutic coach working with the whole person, from their mind, body, and spirit to the conscious and unconscious parts waiting to be explored.
My approach is relational, which means our relationship is central to our work together. This is your space to come as you are and bring what you wish, however difficult that may be. Every person is unique and I incorporate a range of theories and approaches to suit each individual. If you wish, creative and embodiment practices can be woven into our sessions. This can be through art, collage, poetry, meditation, movement, visualisations, rituals, inner child, and parts work.
Therapeutic coaching can help you work towards creating positive changes. it can be particularly beneficial to those with ADHD, activating the Dopamine reward centre by implementing strategies for moving forward.
As children, we tell ourselves stories for survival but through newfound self-compassion and esteem, you can free yourself from the story without it being diminished. Counselling and coaching provide a place for you to express your fears and anxieties, and enables you to develop resilience and hope for the future. Most importantly, a place for you to be yourself and feel heard.
I am passionate about equality and diversity and believe in creating an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome. I am fortunate to have experience of counselling a wide range of individuals of different ages, backgrounds, and cultures.
I have always been inspired by spirituality. I see it as a personal journey which is unique to everyone. Regardless of your beliefs, I love helping people find meaning, whether spiritual, religious or agnostic.
Therapy and coaching are a transformative process that can involve looking within and digging deep, and that takes courage. With this in mind, it is important that you find the right counsellor. It may be me, or it may be someone else. If it is me, you will be met with warmth and friendliness from the outset.
