Sara Dallat welcomes people who are looking for a respectful, empathetic counsellor to talk things through. She meets each person with sensitivity and aims to create a calm space for honest conversation. Sara is named at the start because she wants clients to know who they will be working with.

With three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom, Sara supports people facing issues related to LGBT matters, trauma and abuse, intimacy, parenting and self esteem.

Background and approach

She also focusses on attachment difficulties, body image, post-traumatic stress, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, self-love, sexuality and women’s issues. Sessions are shaped around what each person brings to the room. Sara adapts the pace and content of sessions to match individual needs.

She works collaboratively to set goals and decide what to focus on next. Conversations are practical and grounded, with time for reflection and planning between meetings. People can expect a tailored plan rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Sara aims to empower clients to build coping skills and clearer ways of relating to themselves and others. Progress is tracked through regular check-ins and agreed steps. Her style is warm and supportive, encouraging people to take small, manageable steps towards change.

The emphasis is on real-life improvements that fit into everyday routines.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Many evidence-based techniques focus on how people think, feel and connect with others. One common approach looks at patterns in relationships and attachment to help people understand why they react a certain way and to develop different ways of relating. This can help with intimacy concerns, attachment issues and self-esteem problems.

Another useful approach addresses the impact of trauma and post-traumatic stress by helping people make sense of distressing memories and learning skills to manage strong emotions. It aims to reduce the hold of past events so daily life becomes easier to manage.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, review what feels most helpful and adjust methods as therapy progresses. That way the plan stays relevant to the person’s needs and preferences.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations, phone sessions can be easier when video is not wanted, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit shorter check-ins or moments when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
