Saralea Stewart is a counsellor with ten years of practice who focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety and relationship problems. She holds a first class BA (Hons) Degree in Person Centred Counselling from the University of East Anglia and the University of Essex and uses that background to centre sessions on each person’s experience.

She sees issues ranging from depression, grief and anger to addictions and bipolar mood concerns.

Background and approach

She also supports people dealing with family tensions, parenting strain, intimacy issues and work or career worries. Additional focus areas include body image, attachment concerns, codependency and difficulties after separation. Saralea draws on client-centred therapy to make people feel heard and accepted in sessions.

She also uses motivational interviewing to help people find their own reasons for change. Solution-focused work is used when practical, short-term goals are helpful. Her practical experience includes counselling in colleges and community settings, work with addiction services, and over ten years in independent practice.

She is a member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and continues professional training to keep skills current. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Saralea aims to keep conversations straightforward and focused on what matters to each person.

She emphasises self-awareness and practical steps people can try between meetings.

How Saralea’s approaches work well online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person in front of the counsellor. Online sessions let Saralea offer that same attentive, non-judgemental listening whether meeting by video or phone. This approach helps people feel accepted while they talk through what matters to them.

Motivational interviewing is a collaborative method that helps people find their own reasons to change. Online conversations can be used to gently explore ambivalence and build motivation in short, manageable steps. Solution-focused therapy looks at practical, achievable goals and quick strategies to move forward, which suits video or text check-ins when people want clear next steps between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Saralea will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and then try methods that fit the person. The process is collaborative and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions work when bandwidth or comfort with video is an issue, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide shorter check-ins or a way to reflect between meetings. These options make it easier to fit counselling into a routine and keep consistent momentum.
