Counselling in-person from Cambridge & Hitchin and online
Supporting you through life & career changes
Welcome. I’m Sarah and I’m a counsellor specialising in life and career transitions.
Perhaps you’re navigating a new chapter in life - finding your feet after divorce, adjusting to an empty nest, settling somewhere new, questioning your career direction or preparing for retirement.
You may feel at a crossroads, unsure which way to turn, or overwhelmed by the choices ahead. Significant change can leave you questioning who you are and where you fit, particularly when circumstances unfold differently than expected.
Having someone to talk things through with can help. Transitions often bring uncertainty, anxiety and indecision, alongside questions about identity, purpose and what comes next.
As a qualified therapist who has faced significant changes in my own life, I understand how disorienting these times can feel. I know the value of having an independent ear - someone to listen, help you explore your emotions and find a way forward.
Therapy with me offers space to reconnect with yourself, understand what matters to you and consider which patterns support you and which may be holding you back. Together, we can explore your values, sense of purpose and what you want from the next chapter of your life.
Issues I work with
Life Transitions
Relationships ending or beginning. A move, a loss, a quiet question about who you are now. Change can bring uncertainty about what’s ahead and how to deal with it. Counselling gives you the space to think about how to navigate it.
Adapting to university life, parenthood, an empty nest or becoming a carer
Relationship difficulties, separation or divorce
Loss, grief or bereavement
Adapting to illness or injury
Midlife crisis & menopause
Moving home, relocating
Decisions and dilemmas
Career Transitions
Redundancy, midlife shifts in motivation and purpose. Work is at the heart of who we are, so when things change unexpectedly or your job no longer feels fulfilling, counselling offers you time to recalibrate, understand what you want and find direction.
Career change, promotion & retirement
Redundancy or job loss
Changes in identity, direction or purpose
Returning to work after a break
Life-work balance
Work-related stress, anxiety & burnout
Issues at work including conflict, harassment and bulliying
How I can support you through change
I’m a talk therapist, and our work begins with understanding you, your experiences and what matters to you. I aim to create an open, trusting relationship where you feel comfortable exploring whatever is on your mind.
Transitions can bring a mix of emotions, from anxiety, grief and uncertainty to relief, excitement and hope. Counselling offers space to make sense of these feelings, understand what the changes mean for you and find support as you find your way through them.
Working collaboratively, I’ll support and gently challenge you to gain greater insight into your experiences and find your own way forward. As an integratively trained counsellor, I draw on different therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs, working at your pace whether you need a few sessions to navigate a particular transition or longer-term support as you adjust to a new phase in your life.
