Sarah Marlow-Rawles works from a person-centred approach that puts the client's experience first. She uses that style to help people make sense of difficult feelings and practical challenges. Sarah is a BACP counsellor with 13 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom.

She supports people who are struggling with stress, anxiety and low mood. She also helps with relationship and parenting concerns, self-esteem, motivation and recovery from addiction. Other areas she focuses on include trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues and compassion fatigue.

Background and approach

Sarah blends psychodynamic ideas with attachment-based thinking to look at how past relationships shape present patterns. She uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, doable steps that can make a quick difference. Trauma-focused methods are used when past hurt continues to affect daily life.

Sessions are practical and conversational. Sarah helps people notice strengths, spot unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping. The aim is to build clearer choices and more dependable ways of relating to others and to oneself.

Her work is straightforward and steady. People meet to talk things through, try out new responses and plan for change. Sarah supports each person to set the pace and focus that matters most to them.

Using practical therapy approaches online

Sarah draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns in close connections; this approach can help with trust, intimacy and recurring relationship difficulties. She also uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people tap into their own resources to make changes. Where past harm affects daily life she applies trauma-focused methods to address overwhelming memories and build safer ways of coping.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Sarah will talk with each person about their needs, goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. Together they review what helps and adapt the plan as things change so work stays relevant and practical.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and seeing non-verbal cues. Phone can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing or who need flexible, ongoing contact between scheduled sessions.
