Counselling, Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy & Therapeutic Coaching Central Bristol & Online Throughout the UK with Sarah Guthrie

Hello, I am Sarah, a trauma-informed counsellor, Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist and therapeutic coach based in Bristol and online, helping individuals aged 16+. I work with the whole person, and I have lived experience of ADHD and navigating the world as a highly sensitive person.

I work with, but am not limited to, those experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, low self-esteem, loss, sleep difficulties, as well as those seeking healthier relationships and a clearer sense of purpose.

Counselling

My approach is relational, which means our relationship is central to our work together. This is a space where you don’t need to mask or hide any part of yourself. Every person is unique, and I incorporate a range of 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, ancestral, inner child, and parts work.

Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy

Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy is a forward-focused therapy that combines talking therapies, neuroscience and relaxation. It is a safe and effective way to make positive changes in your life. By using hypnosis, it allows you to access your subconscious mind to break negative habits and build positive pathways. If you are stressed and anxious, don’t want to talk about feelings, or have ASD and find it overwhelming, hypnotherapy is for you.

Therapeutic Coaching

Therapeutic coaching can help you work towards creating positive changes. I love to help people manifest their dreams. This is blended into my counselling and aspects can be integrated with the hypnotherapy to help with motivation and implementing those desired changes.

Spirituality

I’ve always been inspired by spirituality and see it as a deeply personal journey unique to each individual. Regardless of your beliefs, I love helping people find meaning—whether spiritual, religious, or agnostic.

Values

I am passionate about equality and diversity and believe in creating an inclusive space where everyone feels welcome. I am an LGBTQIA+ ally. If you have been impacted by racism or discrimination of any kind, please know that talking about it is deeply welcomed here.
