Sarah Lacon helps people manage stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, anger and career difficulties. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, addictions, grief, trauma and relationship problems. Sarah is approachable and calm, and she aims to make it easier to talk about hard things.

Sarah works in a warm, non-judgemental way. She listens first and then helps people find practical steps that fit their life. Sessions focus on what matters now and on small changes that add up over time.

Background and approach

She uses a mix of recognised approaches such as client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness exercises. These tools are adapted to each person rather than applied as a fixed package. Motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas may also be included when helpful.

Sarah holds the NCPS credential and has three years of professional experience. Her practice covers issues including bipolar, depression, sleep and eating concerns, low self-esteem and coping with major life changes. She also pays attention to adoption and foster care, attachment issues and neurodiversity such as autism.

Sessions aim to be practical and compassionate. People leave with clearer steps to try between meetings and with strategies for managing emotions, communication and everyday routines. Sarah welcomes English-speaking clients in the United Kingdom and internationally for online sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Sarah often uses client-centred therapy which means the conversation is guided by the person seeking help, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clarify thoughts and feelings. This approach is useful for building trust and exploring what matters most to the individual.

She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy or CBT, a practical method that looks at connections between thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT helps people break unhelpful patterns and develop skills for managing anxiety, low mood, sleep and many everyday problems.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, preferences and life situation, and will adjust the plan as needed.

Online therapy offers flexibility for modern life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that is preferred, phone sessions can fit into a short break or use less bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
