About Sabrina
Sabrina Faulkner is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain and parenting challenges. She offers calm, practical help for sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem and coping with life changes. Her work also covers LGBT concerns, intimacy and trauma-related issues including abuse and attachment difficulties.
Sabrina uses a human-centred style that aims to make clients feel heard and respected. She listens first and tailors conversations to each person.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters now and on small steps people can try between meetings. Her methods include client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural techniques and elements of mindfulness and hypnotherapy. That mix helps with changing unhelpful thoughts, managing overwhelm and learning ways to relax and refocus.
She also draws on existential ideas when people want to talk about meaning, values and life direction. Sabrina trained in psychology and holds a diploma in hypnotherapy. Her listed credential is NCPS.
She combines work in a independent practice with volunteer roles and has six years' experience in counselling work. People often come to her when parenting feels overwhelming or when they need help making a major life decision. In sessions she aims to be clear, down to earth and practical.
The focus is on honest conversation and on finding approaches that fit each person’s everyday life.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Sabrina commonly blends client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy in online sessions. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's perspective, which helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want to change. Cognitive behavioural therapy targets unhelpful thoughts and patterns and offers concrete techniques to reduce anxiety, improve sleep and manage mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Sabrina will discuss goals and preferences and try methods collaboratively. She will adapt techniques over time so the plan fits the client's needs and practical life constraints.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls suit deeper conversations where visual connection helps. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter environment is easier to arrange. Live chat and messaging can be useful for short check-ins, quick coping strategies or keeping momentum between longer sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy around work, childcare and other daily routines.
