Sarah Semper, BACP

Sarah Semper is a counsellor with 14 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem, grief, parenting strain, and other life changes. Sarah also works with people facing trauma and abuse, and with LGBT clients seeking support around identity and relationships.

Her style is warm and practical. Sessions mix talking with creative tools when useful, such as art and imagery alongside conversation. Sarah draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Attachment-Based ideas, and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding.

She aims to help people build clearer emotional awareness and a stronger sense of self. That may mean learning simple ways to manage anxious thoughts, practising gentle mindfulness, or exploring how past relationships shape current reactions. Work is paced to the person’s needs and priorities.

Sarah trained as an integrative counsellor and holds BACP registration, which reflects her professional standing in the UK. She has worked across a wide range of concerns, including adoption and foster care, attachment issues, chronic illness, codependency, and body image difficulties.

How her approaches translate to online work

Attachment-Based ideas focus on relationships and how early connections shape feelings and reactions. Online sessions can explore patterns in current relationships and help people try different ways of relating and responding.

Client-Centred work puts the person’s goals and pace first. The therapist listens without judgement and helps people find their own understanding and next steps; this approach suits those who want a collaborative, respectful space.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is practical and problem-focused. It helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and practise small behavioural changes that ease anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. The therapist will work with the person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals and preferences. That conversation happens together and can shift as progress is made.

The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Confirm the current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Many people find remote work helps them sustain regular check-ins and practise skills between sessions without needing extra travel.
