Sarah Raphael (She/ Her)

I am a trainee psychotherapist offering low-cost counselling to individuals and couples. 

In my experience, people come to therapy when the pain of holding it all together becomes too much. As your therapist, I will offer practical strategies and accessible theories to help you manage the issues you are facing, while gently confronting self-defeating patterns of behaviour. I see the therapy room as a relaxed, caring environment in which you can freely explore all the parts of yourself – the parts that feel ok and the parts that don’t. 

My practice is integrative, meaning I use a mix of theories from different schools of psychotherapy, from psychodynamic to cognitive behavioural. I find the use of transactional analysis and attachment theory particularly constructive in supporting change. I am in my final year of a five-year course and have four years’ clinical experience as well as a certificate in couples counselling. 

Online and/or telephone appointments also available.
