My name is Sarah Wood, I am a Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and work with adults, children and young people (11+).
Do you suffer with regulating your emotions, anxiety, frustration, down days, depression, mood swings, anger or low self esteem? Maybe you feel like you have lost yourself, feel stuck and struggling to see a way forward?
During my years as a practitioner, I have gained a lot of experience working with personality disorders (in particular, those with a diagnosis or a suspected diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder/Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (BPD/EUPD) and those who are neurodivergent (Autism, ADD, ADHD).
I offer one to one counselling which can help to unpick what is going on for you, identify those thoughts and feelings and for it to feel less overwhelming. It can also help to observe patterns of behaviour and look at how they benefit or how they can be adapted in a healthier way.
As an integrative therapist, my training has provided me with the flexibility to meet the differing needs of clients and enables me to work with a significant variety of presenting issues including but not exclusive to-
Self-harm, suicidal thoughts, emotional dysregulation, anger issues, stress, anxiety, depression, bereavement, low self-esteem, lack of confidence, relationship concerns, school or/and family issues.
If what you are experiencing is not listed, please do not hesitate to get in touch with any questions or concerns you may have.
For many years I volunteered in an agency setting counselling children, young people and adults and I worked part time as a College Counsellor in the Bucks area.
Alongside my Private Practice, I work with a couple of Employee Assistance programs (EAP) providing solution focused therapy and I also work occasionally within A SEN school.
I provide short or long term therapy depending on your individual needs. This is a personal choice and there is no obligation for you to stay any longer than you feel is necessary or that you can cope with.
