About Sabrina

Sabrina Faulkner works with stress, anxiety, LGBT matters, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, sleep problems and parenting concerns using a humanistic, client-focused style. She is registered with the NCPS and has six years' experience in counselling and related work.

Sabrina uses an approachable way of talking that aims to make conversations clear and practical. Sessions focus on what is happening now, and on small, manageable steps that can help reduce distress. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness where helpful, while also offering hypnotherapy and existential perspectives when clients want those options.

Her background includes a degree in psychology and a diploma in hypnotherapy alongside NCPS registration. Sabrina has run a private practice and undertaken volunteer work, bringing a mix of professional and community experience to her work with clients.

She also writes about aspects of wellbeing and has published work that reached Amazon bestseller status. That writing feeds back into how she talks about coping strategies and life changes in counselling sessions.

Sabrina aims to adapt the way she works to the needs of each person. Early sessions tend to focus on identifying immediate concerns and practical steps, with further sessions exploring patterns, relationships and longer term goals if the client wishes to do that.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on understanding a person's experience through attentive listening and open dialogue; it helps people clarify their feelings and priorities. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood and practical coping; it can help with anxiety, sleep problems and unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and to increase awareness of present-moment experience.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor will discuss preferences, goals and what feels helpful, and will adapt methods in collaboration with the client rather than imposing one model.

Please check which session formats are currently offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make appointments easier to fit around work and family life, and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins or sessions that do not require being on camera, depending on the format agreed with the counsellor.
