Life can feel heavy sometimes.
Maybe you’re feeling anxious, burnt out, or overwhelmed. Or perhaps you’re navigating the challenges of neurodivergence, like ADHD or Autism, and it’s exhausting trying to manage everything on your own.
I offer a calm, safe, and non-judgmental space where you can be yourself. Here, you can talk about what’s challenging for you, explore your feelings, and find support that helps you feel heard and understood.
I work with people who are:
-
Feeling burnt out or stressed
-
Struggling with anxiety, low mood, or overwhelm
-
Exploring their own neurodivergence, self-identifying, or processing a new or late diagnosis
-
Exploring identity, relationships, or communication
-
Parenting challenges
Counselling with me is about:
-
Being heard and understood
-
Taking things at your own pace
-
Finding ways to manage overwhelm and difficult emotions
-
Building self-acceptance and healthy boundaries
About Me
Sarah Pearson
Integrative Counsellor MBACP
Hello, and welcome!
I’m Sarah, a qualified integrative counsellor offering online or in-person sessions for adults and teens aged 16+.
I am passionate about advocating for neurodivergent individuals, recognising the importance of understanding, support, and acceptance. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can feel accepted and let go of any pressure to mask or conform to societal norms.
I value each individual's unique way of thinking and feeling.
I work from a strengths-based approach while acknowledging that navigating a world not always designed for neurodivergence can feel challenging.
I have experience supporting clients who are neurodivergent or experiencing burnout, bereavement, divorce, trauma, anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties.
If you’re looking for a confidential, supportive, and empathetic space to explore what you're going through, I’m here to listen. My aim is to help you explore your challenges and find a way forward that works best for you.
My Approach
As a qualified integrative counsellor, I draw from a range of theories and therapeutic approaches, adapting my approach to meet your unique needs.
This flexibility allows us to explore what works best for you, whether that’s understanding your emotions, identifying patterns in your life, or finding effective coping strategies.
My aim is to provide a space where you feel safe to explore what 's worrying you or what you are finding challenging. I'm not here to give advice or tell you what to do, but to work together to find the best way forward.
I have a gentle approach and will always work at your pace.
